Tips

Mountain biking

Loch Gamhna means 'Loch of the Stirk' (stirk being the word for bullock), and was so named after the route used by cattle thieves beside it. It lies at the Southern end of Loch an Eilein and it is possible to run around both lakes.

Mountain biking

This part is mainly a hiking trail or suited for advanced Mountainbikers. Wouldn’t recommend any other bike (gravel, e-bike etc.) but absolutely nice scenery :)
