Downhill
- The area has Downhill runs with jumps on the side of White Hil. It is a small section of runs hidden in the woods above bonaly scout camp. The run from top to bottom is probably only between 1 and 2 minutes but there are lots of sections to ride and it links well to the rest of the pentland hills as a final descent back home
Cross Country
- The cross country is single-track epic riding and a good starting point is from Bonaly Country Park car Park. From there you can head off to explore the Pentland Hills.
- MTB Trails has a good area description and a 33 km XC route that runs through the Pentland hills.
Groups
- To get involved check out the Bonaly Facebook Page who manage all building work first through consultation with the local ranger.
