    After the smooth gravel on the north side of Glen Avon, you'll encounter more rugged and adventurous trails here. However, as in the rest of the Scottish Highlands, the higher up the climb, the more beautiful the scenery becomes. With a gravel bike or mountain bike, you can enjoy beautiful cycling all the way to Loch Builg, or beyond.

      Good chance your feet could get wet here with a few river crossings which are generally very shallow but can be very cold and higher during snow melt. Generally reasonable quality undulating land rover track turning to rocky single track on the Lochside. The latter is fun and ride-able in dry conditions but can be boggy in sections. Bonny all the way.
