Glenlivet Blue

Glenlivet Blue is a 9km blue grade route suitable for all the family but exciting to ride with its twists and turns and great flow. The Blue is 'swoopy', sort of like a bobsleigh run-stroke roller coaster ride. But it is blue so no deliberate jumps on it, however, if you try hard and you know the trail there are jump opportunities to be had. It's pretty rad for a blue.

Glenlivet Red

Glenlivet Red is a 22K red-grade route with black-grade technical features to keep the expert mountain biker entertained all year long! Glenlivet Red climbs to the summit of Carn Daimh, offering breathtaking views of the Cairngorms before plunging into the Glenlivet descent; 6.5K of single track downhill packed with black grade features and jumps. the red is tight and twisty, described as sort of 'Welsh' in places (think narrow full bench cut on a steep side slope).

Mini DH starts just at the top end of the car park and is just under 1km. It has muddy sections, roots, large drop-offs (can ride around), jumps and steep sections.
For 2025 there will be a top section for Mini DH, starting next to Keiran’s line. It will be a blend of machine-built, and hand-dug trail sections to give as natural a feel as possible, while at the same time constructed to stand up to the volume of riders expected to use it. This style of construction tries to minimise the impact on the environment and ensure the trail rides differently in the wet compared to dry conditions, with some roots and mud still evident.

This hand-built track kicks just above the top of the Red and joins the red lower down after a mix of fast open hillside, tech, loam and woods.

Glenlivet’s XL jump trail is called ‘Kieran’s line’. It is named in memory of Keiran Mckandie @keiranslegacysavinglives. It is a pro-difficult jump line to challenge and push your progression.

A few natural trails like the Grey Area, Steep Spice and the Diamh Hard, Glenduro and Mini DH dotted around.
