| WMB 126 Isle of Skye Intermediate (Red) Ride | Matt_Skinner | Jul 27th 2011, 03:02 | 25.5km |
|
|
| Start/Finish Bridge over river at head of Loch Slapin Total distance 25.6km (16 miles) Total Time 3-4 hours Maps required OS Landranger sheet 33, South Skye and Cuillin Hills. Or Garmin National Parks 1:25K Isle of Skye (GPS). Summary: Incredible coastal ride with picture perfect moorland singletrack, technical sections along cliffs and shore, finishing with a fast and stony descent. Ride south along the coastal road towards Torrin, climb through and out of the village. Look for singletrack road on the right, turning hard back on yourself signed as footpath to Suisnish. Take this turn and follow the road as it turns to track and then gets gradually rougher as you progress down the coastline. It finally pops out in Suisnish, where you pass a house with a rusted red corrugated iron roof. Continue on to a green shed just further ahead. Ride round the left of the shed, then contour round the meadow, being careful not to disturb any livestock. Splash through the burn and look for the short section of fence that has been lowered to make crossing easier. Jump over this then continue on the grassy singletrack round the coast. It drops through some technical sections in the cliffs so be careful, then continues along the shore side. When you get into the village of Boreraig the trails start to wind between the house ruins. Continue on the path as it gets a little indistinct, but keep an eye up on your left for a large standing stone that marks the start of the trail climbing over the hill. Grassy at first, it firms up into gravel and carries you over to Strath Suardal. Follow the main track through a gate, and look for a grassy path dropping away on your left. Follow this down to the road, turn left past the church and cemetery and follow the road back through Torrin (stopping for a break in the Blue Shed) and back to the car. | |||||

|
|
| Start/Finish: Sligachan Hotel Total distance: 26km (16.2 miles) Total Time: 4-6 hours Maps: OS Landranger sheet 33, South Skye and Cuillin Hills. Or Garmin National Parks 1:25K Isle of Skye (GPS). Summary: Short on paper, this ride is still a strenuous challenge in the best of weather. If you enjoy technical riding, you will love it. Starting at the Sligachan Hotel – don’t park in its car park – cross over the arched bridge and turn immediately right through the gate and onto the well signposted trail. Climb up the initial stone pitched rise and take in the views before setting off in earnest. Approximately 8km along the trail there is a small cairn to mark a junction in the trail. Right turn to Loch Curuisk if you are on foot, but our route stays left/straight on for Camasunary. On the shores of Loch na Creitheach you will see another trail junction, with the left turn climbing steeply over a hill. Ignore this, staying right along the lochside. At the end of Loch na Creitheach the path splits (not on the map) with one going right round the beach at the loch head and up the hill. Take either here – or vary them on the way out and back – as they both end up in the same place. Drop down the gradual slope to the sea and turn right after the occupied, but isolated, farmhouse. Scoot along the beach to the bothy – a great place to sit and have lunch – before deciding whether to tackle the whole circuit or just return the way you came. We recommend the straight return as the circuit turns into a bit of a slog with little in the way of good riding once you hit the road at Kilmarie. | |||||
| WMB 100 Fort William Intermediate (Red) Ride | Matt_Skinner | May 13th 2011, 02:09 | 13.9km |
|
|
| Start/Finish: The North Face car park, GR NN145764 Total distance: 14km (8.7 miles) Height gain: 619m (2023 feet) Time: 2-3 hours Maps required: OS Landranger OL41, Ben Nevis, Fort William and Glen Coe. Route summary: One for the climbers in your group — takes you up to the high crags of Ben Nevis for a real mountain feel. Lots of technical singletrack in a spectacular location. Leave the North Face car park on the track heading southeast, crossing the river. Follow this for a short time before taking the narrow track on the right, climbing steeply. At the next crossroads take a left on the ‘puggy line’ (light railway) track. Follow this for 450m then take a sharp right onto more singletrack. This switchbacks up to meet another track, where you turn left. Follow it to a T-junction, where you turn right. This takes you all the way to the mountaineer’s footpath. Follow the excellent singletrack southeast into the corrie ahead. The trail pops over frequent water bars here, so practise your rear wheel hops! Keep climbing up the trail up to the foot of the crags. Just short of the CIC Hut the trail deteriorates so you might want to turn round here. Alternatively push your bike up for lunch by the hut. (It’s a private Scottish Mountaineering Club hut and will be locked.) Turn back and reap the rewards as you descend down to the track. Carry on past the original track you arrived on and take the next left. Follow the track left as it contours round the hill heading south-west, then take a right onto the track descending steeply down the hillside. When you reach the track junction at the bottom by the pylons, turn right and you’re back on the ‘puggy line’ — after 1.5km you’ll see the singletrack you climbed up on your left. Follow this back to the car park and a well-earned cuppa. | |||||

|
|
| Start/Finish: Braveheart car park, GR NN121736 Total distance: 13.2km (8.2 miles) Height gain: 260m (850 feet) Time: 1-1.5 hours Maps required: OS Landranger OL41, Ben Nevis, Fort William and Glen Coe Route summary: A sheltered and easy climb up Glen Nevis on fire roads, followed by a short singletrack downhill, scenic road pedal and fast singletrack back along the River Nevis to the Braveheart car park. Starting in the well-signposted Braveheart car park on the Glen Nevis road, leave the car park and instead of turning left to descend to the road, turn right up the fire road and through the gate. Keep left when the track forks at GR NN121722 — the West Highland Way forks right at this point. Carry on climbing steadily up the undulating track for another 4.3km at which point you take the right-hand fork, climbing more steeply for a short time. Where the track takes a sharp switchback right turn, look on the left for an easy-to-miss trail in the undergrowth heading steeply down the hillside. It’s quite technical for a short stretch here, so go easy if you aren’t confident — take a look first. Follow this trail down to the road, where you turn left onto the tarmac. Just before the excellent Café Beag on your left (an ideal opportunity for a quick top up) turn right over the footbridge. At the other side, turn sharply left onto the singletrack running along the riverside. Follow this for nearly 2km, until you reach another footbridge crossing back over the river. Arrive at the Nevis car park, then turn right on the road and keep an eye out on your left for the singletrack path paralleling the road back to the Braveheart car park. | |||||

|
|
| Start/Finish: Braveheart car park, GR NN121736 Total distance: 19.9km (12.4 miles) Time: 2-4 hours Height gain: 724m (2367 feet) Maps required: OS Landranger OL41, Ben Nevis, Fort William and Glen Coe Route summary: A strenuous climb out of Glen Nevis, with challenging singletrack and fast forest blasts. Starting in the Braveheart car park on the Glen Nevis road, turn right up the fire road and through the gate. Follow the track as it climbs steadily. At the track fork, go right following the West Highland Way (WHW) thistle marker posts. This track begins to climb more steeply before switchbacking further up as it reaches the head of the glen. Follow the main track up and over the rise. Just after you begin descending, keep an eye out on your left for the singletrack heading off into the woods, marked with a WHW thistle post. Follow this singletrack through the trees — there are no other trails to go wrong on. Pass through the gate and leave the forest, sticking to the WHW as it goes up the side of a small hill then down to another gate. Pass through this and begin the descent down to the road. At the WHW information board turn right onto the singletrack road (marked as alternative WHW route into Fort Bill). Follow this to the outskirts of the town. Just as you’re reaching the first houses take the track on your right, climbing steadily back up onto Cow Hill. Begin the epic climb back up to the border, turning left to join The Street at OS NT792191. Navigation is fairly straightforward here: follow the obvious doubletrack as it makes its way south over one false summit after another. At the high point of the stony track there is a cow’s head sign marked to Glen Nevis. Take this right and descend initially on wide trail. A sign on your left reads ‘multi-user trail’ but isn’t marked on any maps. Take this trail and descend on excellent flowing path all the way to Fort William. Take the right turn and the trail turns back on itself to return you to the Braveheart car park. | |||||
