Pitlochry – Farragon Loop

pitlochry Farragon

This is a great 40km 4-5hr route about 90mins away from Glasgow. Navigation is easy, it is all weather, great scenery and Escape Route Bikes. Going clockwise, it begins with a fire road climb  out of Pitlochry, followed by a great single track descent all the way down into Strathtay. There is then a few kms of quiet C road  going up the Tay, look out for the red squirrels I saw 3 and also the turn off to the right to Aodin/Edradynate Estate. There is then a long rideable land rover track climb to the ridge. The pay back is good for a slightly more techy land rover track descent down to Loch  Tummel and then a chill out along the riverside back to Pitlochry.
