Overview
Tour Operator Caledonian Discovery
The biking on this 7 day/ 6 night holiday offers a variety of enjoyable options.
Each day our experienced guide will show you the finest trails and rides around and beyond the Great Glen. These will range from a mixture of trail, forest track, towpath and quiet, scenic roads, that we don’t have time to offer on our shorter 4 day ‘Bike the Great Glen’ cruise. Some of the areas we will venture to include the start of the longest no-through road in the UK; the famous Leanachan forest trails around Nevis Range, home to the Fort William UCI World Cup; the old Great Glen Cycleway which takes you high above Loch Ness offering some fantastic views and a real sense of "a space to breathe".
