Full logistical backup, independent pace
The trip pairs independent bikepacking with full logistical support: detailed maps, emergency backup and on-the-ground organisation so you can explore at your own pace without carrying every contingency.
Cosy hostel stops and optional camp spots
After a day on hilly tracks and grassy ways, each evening brings the comfort of a warm, welcoming hostel or a special camp spot where riders can relax, dry kit and recharge for the next day.
What the day feels like
How the trip feels
The two-day flow eases you into long daylight hours and big Highland skies: mornings at Comrie Croft, a slow unfurling through local glens and lochs on a mixture of land-rover tracks, wide grassy paths and easy singletrack, and evenings spent in cosy hostel company. The route is hilly but rideable; where slopes bite, you can dismount and walk your bike, and support from the operator keeps the logistics simple.
