View of Alva from the Hill Path

Highlight • Trail

Not really a gravel bike descent when the grass is damp as there is no traction and very hard to control on steep slope just before the stony hairpins of the Nebbit. Best done on mtb.

The gravel track takes you from Dollar towards Glendevon is fantastic in both directions and overlooks Castle Campbell. The 15th century fortress sits in an enviable, dramatic position above Dollar Glen. The oldest part of the castle is the 15th century tower.

Castle Campbell was home to the powerful Campbell earls of Argyll with significant historical figures visiting like Mary Queen of Scots and John knox. The castle is open to visitors however at time of writing (08/12/22) it is closed due to ongoing masonry work.
