This track follows an old pass but has been widened and improved as a logging road. It's still quite rough but is passable on a touring bike. It cuts a huge corner though so is well worth the discomfort of a rough road to save the miles and enjoy the views.

Embark on the Kylestrome to Loch More loop, a difficult mountain bike adventure spanning 39.3 miles (63.3 km) with a substantial 4854 feet (1479 metres) of elevation gain. This route takes you through the wild, untouched landscapes of the North West Highlands, offering a true sense of adventure. You will navigate a mix of paths, gravel sections, and quiet single-track roads, experiencing everything from vast mountain views towards Quinag to the expansive, peaceful moorland of the Caithness Flow Country around Loch More. Expect a challenging ride that typically takes around 6 hours and 7 minutes to complete.
To tackle this demanding loop, you will need good fitness and advanced riding skills. Be prepared for unpaved segments where you might need to push your bike, especially in more challenging areas. Given the remote nature of the trail, it is essential to bring all necessary supplies with you, as amenities are scarce. Access points for routes in this general vicinity include areas near Kylesku for the Kylestrome side and Thurso, via Halkirk and Westerdale, for the Loch More section.
What truly sets this route apart is the profound sense of remoteness and pure solitude it offers. As you cycle, you will encounter wild landscapes, serene lochside stretches, and open moorland under wide skies. Loch More itself, a freshwater loch that has been dammed to manage the River Thurso's water levels, features pretty, remote beaches at its northern end, providing a unique focal point within this peaceful escape.
