Review for Glenlivet Mountain Bike Trails

Jurassic:

I rode here earlier this year to introduce my wife to trail centre riding while we were on a short break near Aviemore. It was easy enough to find after doing a bit of online research and the drive to get there was interesting if a little slow. The facilities are great and the staff very friendly and helpful (being happy to offer advice). We rode the blue trail together and my wife loved the flowing cruisy nature of the trail (and I enjoyed it too) then while she read her book and enjoyed the coffee and cakes back at the cafe I headed out on my own to ride the red route. It doesn't flow like the blue route but does give you the work out you'd be looking for in a red graded circuit with plenty of harder black graded features thrown in to test you (all with chicken lines if you want to avoid them). All in all a great wee centre that deserves success and is well worth a visit. 

The blue trail flows superbly well, the Coffee Still cafe has great eats and drinks with friendly staff with the pump track right outside for spectating. The whole place has a great, friendly feel.
