アーガイルアンドビュートでののおすすめツーリングルート

Seconded - absolutely sublime!

Lovely climb and descent, even on heavily laden touring bikes and not too much traffic to interrupt progress (in mid May for us). Also, if you do have to stop, you can even better appreciate the magnificent scenery, perhaps see some deer, or even golden eagles!

Nice spot to wild camp 🏕! Although hard to find ground that's not covered in sheep poo, they roam freely around. Beach has big pebbles/rocks which came in handy for securing my tent when the wind picked up, just popped one in each corner. Easy to find privacy across the road when nature calls. There is one house nearby so doesn't feel completely isolated, a lovely view to wake up to!

Very beautiful route, demanding but affordable. The biggest difficulty is the traffic which is poorly suited to this single track (although type A). We must systematically stop to let our dear friends who are motor touring enthusiasts pass... which frequently cuts off the effort and becomes quite painful in the long run. Fortunately the majesty of these landscapes more than compensates for this inconvenience 😀

Lovely smooth tar through military firing range which eventually turns to gravel.

Kilberry’s sculptured stone collection is thought to have come from the site of the medieval parish church on the Kilberry Castle estate, a little to the east of the castle itself. The church is first mentioned in about 1350. It was burnt down in the 1640s by the Campbells of Kilberry to prevent the besieging Royalist force of Alistair MacDonald making use of it. The churchyard fell into disuse in the following century and probably now lies under the bowling green. The stones were moved to the castle’s basement in 1948 by local historian and archaeologist Marion Campbell of Kilberry, who invited the Ministry of Works to take them into State care. They were moved from the basement to the current purpose-built shelter in 1951.

Extremely quiet. Watch out for the cows lying on the road, didn't want to move.

Small climb from Oban. Nice spot for a rest.
