Cairngorms Loop


Used as a self-supported bikepacking route, this 300km (185 mile) route can be used for an independent time trial (ITT) challenge, or of course, just ridden for fun at your leisure. 

Based on the classic Tour of the Cairngorms mountain bike route, the course uses different trails to loop twice around the central Cairngorm Mountains. The route begins and ends in the small town of Blair Atholl at the southern edge of the Park.

Start: Old Bridge of Tilt car park, and complete the ride at the Blair Atholl railway station.
