Fairlie Glen Trail

Highlight (Segment) • Forest

Very popular trail above Fairlie and close to Largs. Watch out for walkers at peak times, but a fun trail to ride at quieter times.

Portencross Castle

Highlight • Castle

Fine castle looking out over the Firth of Clyde. Steeped in Scottlsh history so well worth stopping off and exploring the site if you've got time.

Goldenberry Hill Cairn

Highlight • Natural Monument

Be careful climbing over gat to get to cairn as it is covered with electric fence with no signage. Not sure it is live. Excellent short climb and downhill run on rough farm track.
