Shhhh don't tell everyone

Quite , extremely technical , utterly beautiful scenery. Not for beginners.

Good points:

Tech trails some very very steep. Excellent scenery. Huge variety.

Bad points:

Hard climbs on all four hills. Some trails best left alone when it's been very wet.

Would you recommend?

yes

Dunkeld 7 Loops

There is an all day ride that takes in 7 descents of varying lengths but packed full of smiles per miles. 3 are located up in Atholl Woods to the North East of Dunkeld. Strave ride here: http://www.strava.com/activities/72227735 3 were part of the Enduro but were, and still are, existing outside of it. 1 is at the North end of Craigvinean 1) Lovers Leap 2) East Point 3) Cave Pass 4) Newtyle 5) Birnam Hill 6) Craigvinean DH 7) Forest Trail

Good points:

All the descents are fast, singletrack, rocky and rooty. Twisting turns and technical sections best ridden on all mountain bikes

Bad points:

Hard to find them without a map so best pop in to Progression Bikes to ask about route advice. Even with a map some are intentionally well hidden to avoid over use and incorrect use!

Would you recommend?

*Yes*
