Top place to ride

Love the place, ideal for the whole family and riders of all ages and abilities.

What do you like?

Great parking, you can park at the bottom of the trails which is great for the kids meeting up or just sitting having a brew and waiting if not riding. Pump track is great for riders of all ages and abilities with seats and a bike rack. Really well thought out trails and love the fact you have a central starting point to give you access to all the routes. trails are clearly marked as well as crossing points for walkers. Trails provide fun and challenge for riders of all ages and abilities.

What could be improved?

can think of any

Great Little MTB Area

Great little 'trail centre' in Tarland. Lots of variety means people with a wide range of abilities will enjoy it and all the trails return to the car park so it's easy for couples / families. Would definitely recommend, still not managed to get a time as fast as I'd like on most trails after several visits so will definitely be back!

What do you like?

Varied routes Something for everyone

What could be improved?

Small carpark (although have always managed to get a space) Minimal facilities No longer runs

Would you recommend?

*Yes*
