In 2023 the Dalbeattie Community Initiative announced their Rocks and Wheels project will benefit the Levelling up fund by creating an outdoor activity centre with indoor bouldering, 60-bed hostel, outdoor pump track, training and community rooms, and outdoor civic space. Being at the entrance to Dalbeattie Town Wood will allow easy access to the 7stanes mountain bike trail.
Dalbeattie is infamous for its rock and granite slabs. It isn't famous for its height but it is more than testing to ride the stone.
Ironnhash Green Trail
- 11.5km of predominately easy forest road riding with a little singletrack to give a taste to mountain biking.
Moyle Hill Blue Trail
- 14km with more climbing. It steps it up a gear and gives a good introduction to the Dalbeattie rock.
Hardrock Red Trail (with Black sections)
- 25km Rougher and rockier surface for technical riding. Over 65% singletrack. The granite is all-weather and of course, ensures the trail has endearing resilience to erosion. Holds well in the wet. Classic singletrack with gnarly short rock descents and numerous slabs to ride. Black sections are known throughout the MTB community as "The Slab" with its steep angle, the Terrible Twins" and the "Volunteer ridge"
