Cycling & Bike Trails
Cycling
Loch Rannoch is a stunning route to cycle your bike, whether you are a serious road bike enthusiast or just like to ride along at your leisure taking in the many of the picturesque view points and choosing a fantastic location for a packed lunch pit stop.
The area makes up a major part of the Etape Calendona Cycle route, therefore is ideally used a training ground in preparation for the big race itself.
There are other off roading routes and old drovers trails that can be used if you prefer to be off the beaten track.
