Gravel Rides Cairngorms & Perthshire

Gravel Rides Cairngorms & Perthshire showcases 15 of the best gravel bike rides across the Cairngorms National Park and south into Perthshire and the Angus Glens. From 14 to 77 kilometres in length and covering a variety of terrain, there is something for every gravel cyclist.

Explore the fast-rolling gravel of disused railway lines on the Deeside Way and Dava Way, cross the Highland mountain pass of the iconic Burma Road, and discover remote glens such as Little Glen Shee where you’re unlikely to meet another soul.

Researched, ridden and written by Bikepacking Scotland’s Markus Stitz, the routes feature clear and easy-to-use Ordnance Survey maps; easy-to-follow directions; details of distance, timings and difficulty gradings; stunning action photography; refreshment stops and local knowledge; and a detailed appendix. Also included is a link to downloadable GPX files.
