    Tips

    March 7, 2021

    Cycling

    This ancient Roman Road starts just outside the village of Trecastle, with a steep road climb, hitting 20% in places, before you emerge onto a wide open grassy plateau with amazing views all around.

    The track is rough and requires good bike handling skills. The majority of the route is rideable: I used 700X40c Maxxis Rambler tyres (no issues), however there is s steep descent toward the end of the section that is significantly more technical, and I chose to walk this short 20-30 metre section.

    Best experienced on blue sky day.
