If the weather stays dry I plan on heading up to Pitlochry on Saturday for a day out in the hills between there and Blair Atholl.

The route is a mix of forest trails and open moorland singletrack with some great views of the surrounding mountains.  The route is about 30miles and will be a big day out so requires moderate fitness.  There is an option for an easier return route if need be.

Take food with you but I plan on making it to Blair Atholl for afternoon refreshments; the lunch stop will probably be on the hill though.

Parking can be tricky in Pitlochry so try to find somewhere legal and safe to park and we’ll rendezvous at the Escape Route bike shop on the main street.
