Show original
The Cairngorms Loop trail circumnavigates one of the most beautiful areas in the Scottish Highlands, The Cairngorms National Park. Fantastic dirt roads and singletrack to climb valleys up and down through the ancient Caledonian forest. This path returns to the roots of mountain biking and some sections will be a challenge for even the most experienced bikepackers.
Total length of 191 miles (291 km) with 3450 mt. of positive difference in level.
