| A scenic route around the Tay, going East along the south side then crossing the Tay Bridge to come back on the North side. Fairly easy for the most part with a short but very steep climb near the end. | |||||

|
| Start/Finish: Tilt car park, Blair Atholl NN874663 Total distance 38.3km (23.8 miles) Time 2.5-5 hours Maps OS Landranger 43 Braemar & Blair Athol Summary Simple out-and-back with weatherproof trails and stunning scenery. Take the track opposite the car park entrance. It’s signed as a private road but bikes are permitted. Follow this track as it winds through the trees heading directly north. Cross the river once as it tumbles through the gorge and continue climbing gently. Gilbert’s Bridge marks the first possible return route. If you want a very short ride then turn left here, cross the bridge and return to Blair Atholl via easy tracks with a bit more climbing. Otherwise, continue straight on, over Gow Bridge so the river’s on your right, and follow the doubletrack into the glen. Some distance after Forest Lodge, the doubletrack climbs up and away to the left. Bear right here onto singletrack to follow the riverbank to the Falls of Tarf. To extend your ride and take in some of the best natural singletrack, cross the bridge and follow this trail all the way to the cairn at the top of the valley — there’s a precipitous drop to the river so if you’re nervous of heights it’s possibly not one for you. The return route simply retraces your tyre tracks back down the valley, enjoying the reversed gradient. Shortly after Gow Bridge returns you to the east bank of the river, keep an eye out for a path that bears right; this is the second alternative and it’s detailed in the Trailmaps route (see Moderate Ride description on page 118). Otherwise, follow the doubletrack back past Gilbert’s Bridge and back to the car park. | |||||

| Start/Finish: Old Bridge of Tilt car park, Blair Atholl NN874663 Total distance: 53.9km (33.5 miles) Time 5-8 hours Maps Ordnance Survey Landranger 43 Braemar & Blair Atholl Summary Majority on easy estate track but with excellent singletrack deep in the hills. The navigation requires attention and ride is not one for poor weather conditions. Turn right out of the car park then left at the T-junction signposted Glen Fender. Climb steeply on tarmac, bearing right at the next junction (Glen Fender signed left). At Loch Moraig, the road bends sharply left – pass through the gate on the right and take the undulating doubletrack to Shinagag. Cross the bridge over the Allt Girnaig (gated, slippery when wet), then turn left onto a steep, indistinct quad track immediately before the buildings. At the gate, leave the doubletrack that bears right and continue to head straight, climbing gently over rough ground with the bulk of Beinn a’Ghlo directly ahead. Navigation gets tricky here and care is needed not to miss the track beyond the burn crossing. Ford the Allt Loch Valligan and continue in the same direction through the low and very indistinct remains of some stone walls to find the narrow singletrack to Daldhu, becoming doubletrack over the watershed before descending to the river valley. At Daldhu, take the left turn and follow this 4x4 track north to Fealar Lodge; it’s a long haul but it’s the only option. At Fealar Lodge, bear left in front of the farmhouse and pick up the vague singletrack along the fence line. This bears round to the right and contours along the top edge of the gorge before dropping steeply to the Allt Garbh Buidhe, which you will need to cross with care if the river is high. The trail to the right is glorious and worth riding as an out-and-back if you have the time. From this point, navigation is straightforward: simply follow the River Tilt downhill, crossing the suspension bridge at the Falls of Tarf and then descending the valley on gentle doubletrack past increasing amounts of habitation. Stay on the main track all the way back to the car park at Blair Atholl. | |||||

| Start/Finish: Moulin Road, Pitlochry NN938582 Total distance: 16.6km (10.3 miles) Time: 1.5-3 hours Maps: Trailmaps Highland Perthshire Map 1: Pitlochry, Killiecrankie and Faskally Route summary: Mixed bag of fi re road and singletrack, mainly sheltered and requiring attention to navigate. Leave Pitlochry on Moulin Road (opposite WHSmith) and climb to Moulin village, turning left behind the Moulin Inn. Follow this to golf course, then right on the climbing doubletrack. At top, take the tiny singletrack left turn along the hedge. It’s a well-surfaced path that climbs steeply. At the end, turn right up the fi re road and climb around three switchback turns to the mast at Craigower. Take the signposted left turn on singletrack, descending into the woods, over the back of the hill to the fi re road where you turned right previously. Turn right here and follow fi re road for two miles. The turning on the left that takes you under the A9 is clearly signed; follow this singletrack as it descends steps, then passes beneath the bridge and switchbacks down to the old A9. Right towards Killiecrankie, keeping an eye out for left turn that doubles back and descends below the road to river’s edge. The return leg is simply a matter of following the river back to Pitlochry: the trail is a mix of fl at, wide footpath and tighter rooty singletrack. At Faskally itself you’ll fi nd yourself in a car park; follow the road around the river bend then bear right to get back to the trails, continuing in a southerly direction until you reach the road at the boathouse near Clunie Bridge. | |||||

| Spring and summer are great times to do this route, with the promise of decent weather. However, the area is simply stunning in the autumn when the leaves turn gold and red - the trails are quieter too! | |||||
