The Track

  • The track opened in 2021, built by Velosolutions on the site of the former Boat of Garten curling rink, in a forest setting. It has a 226m Main Track and a 46m Kids Track, both asphalt.
  • It is free to ride, open to the public, and floodlit for evening riding.
  • Pump tracks are progressive circuits that use an up and down "pumping" motion to propel the bicycle forward instead of pedalling.
  • The track is fitted with the Velosolutions Vorld timing system. A QR code at trackside lets riders download the Vorld app to time laps and join local and global leaderboards.
  • The track remains free to use. Ride Scotland covers the running costs and insurance through donations. If you would like to support the project, you can donate here.
  • It was built with support from the Scottish Government and sportscotland's Cycling Facilities Fund, plus local crowdfunding.
  • Anagach Woods Trails, near Grantown on Spey, is around a 15-minute drive away: Anagach Woods Trails.

Getting Here

  • The pump track itself is on Deshar Road, Boat of Garten PH24 3BN, on the site of the former curling rink. What3words: lotteries.turkeys.drips.
  • This is a separate location from Ride Scotland's bike shop at the Old Railway Station in the village centre. The shop is a good first stop for local advice and hire, but it is not the pump track.
