힐렌드 호수 최고의 라이딩 경로

Fun little graffiti wall just before the beautiful views open up.

The Crow Road from Gonachan Cottage offers a gentler approach to this iconic Scottish climb, averaging 4–5% over around 5 km with occasional ramps up to 8%. The road surface is smooth and wide, rising steadily through open moorland with far-reaching views as you gain height. The gradient allows you to find a rhythm early and hold it, making it ideal for steady tempo riding. Wind can still be a factor, especially near the summit, so keep your effort measured. It’s a scenic, satisfying climb that rewards pacing and persistence.

Climbing the Crow Road north from Lennoxtown (B822) offers a classic Campsie Fells experience with rewarding views towards Glasgow. Settle in for a sustained ascent averaging around 4-5% over approximately 5-6km. The main physical challenge comes in the middle 'wall' section, where the gradient bites hard, reaching up to around 12-14% and demanding significant, steady effort. Experience the stunning panoramic views unfolding behind you as you gain height. As you emerge onto the open moorland near the summit, be prepared for significant exposure to wind, which often defines the final push to the top of this popular Scottish climb.

Beautiful route, but quiet only in parts, there are some particularly challenging and dangerous intersections and roundabouts when there is heavy traffic.

This cycle way is blocked near the beginning and at the end. It looks as if this has been done recently to deter quad and dirt bikes which have damaged the land.

Avoids busy A-roads.

A great stop to admire the sheep and cows along the way

take a break :)
