    Mountain biking

    Fantastic singletrack descent down the bottom section of the Lairig Ghru. Can be done as a loop accessed via Rothiemurcus Lodge, but even worthwhile as a pedal/push up and ride down.

    Unless there has been a protracted drought expect some pushing from here. It saves further erosion and your legs!

    Awesome singletrack with a mix of everything and fast and flowy but beware of hikers
