All Day Mountain Biking – Saturday Morning
Probably the best biking centre in Britain, Glentress has brilliant trails of all grades, from easy beginners to skilled riders. For the beginner, the Skills Loop has differently graded sections to help you get started. Once you’re ready for the next step, the Blue Route offers ‘real’ mountain biking, but with none of the scary stuff found on the harder routes.
The Red Route boasts some fine singletrack climbs as well as massive, fast descents with jumps and berms in good measure. The black-graded V trail provides an epic ride. It starts from the valley bottom, climbs to Dunslair Heights (600m) and is testing, steep and often on the gnarly side. Elevated North Shore wooden sections and rocky chutes add yet more challenge, and the final descent has a real sting in the tail. On site facilities include a top-notch cafe, a bike shop with bike hire, changing and showering facilities, and a great atmosphere. A perfect full days activity for you and your family.
