If want to get fit on you're bike it's fantastic track
Brave hart is great fun
And the woodland part of the track is fast and fun to
What could be improved?
I am with everyone else the dog walkers are a pain and I mean that literally .
I have had to go to the hospital on two occasions because of dog walkers
Thay should not be allowed on the track .
And I think it could be maintained better
I volunteered last year to help with repair of the track four hours wasted
Achieved nothing .
Apart from that it's a great we track

Awesome wee xc loop, makes a great training ride to bash out a few laps on.
With the soon addition of a velosolutions pumptrack and trail exections, it's only going to get better!

Lack of facilitys, toilets etc...
Although I believe there may be plans made for that in the near future too.

^Allan:
Cathkin Braes mtb course.
Some great wee trails that could do with a few more facilities.
What do you like?
Compact, fun and varied trails, close to the city and with awesome views over the city.
What could be improved?
No facilities at all, sometimes dog walkers can wander onto trails. Car park is dodgy after dark due to fact is popular with different nocturnal groups of folk.
Would you recommend?
*Yes*
