Stunning Highland Loch. The pictures don’t lie. The cycle path follows the Loch shoreline and is a good dirt road. You can travel from Glenfinnan Viaduct all the way to Pollack on a nice 21 mile ride. There are nice shops at the Glenfinnan monument if you want a meal and a coffee.

Well worth a visit to this iconic spot, though it can be very busy with 'train spotters'

Magnificent section of gravel along the loch. The surface is uneven depending on the place, but overall satisfactory for progress. The view is not very clear on the first half of the path (starting from Polloch), then clear as far as Glennfinan.
Please note: the footbridge which allows you to exit the path to access Glennfinan is still closed: reopening expected in September 2024.
