Bicycle hire in the Highlands of Scotland
Need to get out the house/county/country, need to get fit and need to see the great Scottish outdoors! Im thinking of booming up on the train to Inverness and then renting a bicycle and touring around for three days. I can find rental companies but was wondering if anyone had any suggestions/experiences of companies to go with?
Thanks. |

Hi,
I've never hired a bike (I already have a few), but there's a good bike shop in Pitlochry that hires bikes. I mention that as you can take a great route from Pitlochry up through Braemar, Tomintoul, Granton, Cawdor to Inverness. Through the Cairngoms. Then train it back down to Pitlochry, or just ride down (there's alternatives/cycle paths all the way down the A9). You could also do some of the (light) off-road through Gaick Lodge or Bruar Lodge, back to Pitlochry. cheers |
