Starting these rides from Blackmuir Wood car park on outskirts of Strathpeffer these rides will explore a variety of rides on forest roads and tracks. There are many options including tracks past local lochs and through to Contin village with a climb back up through woodland areas or the gentle climb to the remarkable stone labyrinth to find some far-ranging views across the mountains of the north. The rides will be on firm gravel surfaces throughout, with uneven and loose parts in places. Long moderate slopes and some slightly steeper sections to develop our mountain bike miles and experience.

Take to your mountain bike and join in with some gentle rides on two wheels along the nearby well-surfaced trails. We'll ride each week for eight weeks for up to 2 hours on the bike ready to ride by 10am-12noon

These rides will be off roads traffic free routes you will need off road tyres either a mountain bike or gravel bike

The rides are chatty rides and can end with an optional social get together post ride at a nearby Strathpeffer square. The led ride will finish at the starting point to enable everyone to choose their preferences.

Helmets, water and waterproof jacket.

We never leave anyone behind
