Description
Rocks and Wheels in Dalbeattie is a floodlit pump track built by Velosolutions UK, with a main circuit of around 250 metres and a separate beginner track. It sits in the grounds of the town's former primary school on Southwick Road, which the community has turned into an activity centre with a cafe, bunkhouse and an indoor bouldering wall.
The 7stanes trails at Dalbeattie Forest are a short ride away.
The Track
The main circuit is built to competition standard, with rollers, berms, step-ups, step-downs and a split line, and it rides well in short sections or as full laps. Newer riders have their own smaller beginner track alongside. The track is floodlit and has Vorld lap timing, so you can scan the QR code on site and check your time on the leaderboard. In June 2026 it hosted a UK qualifier for the UCI Pump Track World Championships.
Also at the Centre
Rocks and Wheels is a community project run by the Dalbeattie Community Initiative in the town's Grade C-listed former primary school. Alongside the track there is a cafe, bunkhouse accommodation, rooms to hire and The Wa', an indoor bouldering wall.
Getting Here
The centre is on Southwick Road (B793), Dalbeattie, DG5 4HR, beside Colliston Park on the east side of the town. Opening days for the track and centre change through the year, so check the Rocks and Wheels website before you travel.
