린리스고우 호수 최고의 라이딩 경로

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.

Carron Valley Reservoir is a scenic man-made lake in central Scotland, located about 30 miles northeast of Glasgow. It was built in the early 1930s as part of a hydroelectric power project. A flat tarmacked road follows the length of the reservoir and makes for a very scenic cycle.

Cycled over the bridge many times over the years awesome views never boring.

The Union Canal crosses the River Avon via the Avon Aqueduct. It was completed in 1821 and built to a design by Hugh Baird, with advice from Thomas Telford. It's 810 feet (250 m) long and 86 feet (26 m) high. Both the John Muir Way and the Union Canal towpath cross the aqueduct.

Away from busy roads this is my go to route. A bit bumpy in places but nice open countryside views, an rspb sanctuary and occasional deer.

Beautiful open flat road with few cars

What an amazing structure and piece of engineering. It is the only wheel of its kind. Well worth the visit
