Gravel Rides Loch Lomond & The Trossachs showcases 15 of the best gravel bike rides across the Loch Lomond & The Trossachs National Park and west into Argyll. From 15 to 79 kilometres in length, plus a 177-kilometre bonus route, there is something for every gravel cyclist. Immerse yourself in the Gravelfoyle trails around Aberfoyle, the heart of Scottish gravel riding; sample sections of the West Highland Way and John Muir Way, two of Scotland’s Great Trails; and take on coastal adventures on Mull, while scanning the skies for Scotland’s eagles. Also included is a coast-to-coast challenge, cycling west from the Firth of Forth across the Central Belt into the national park. Researched, ridden and written by Bikepacking Scotland’s Markus Stitz, the routes feature clear and easy-to-use Ordnance Survey maps; easy-to-follow directions; details of distance, timings and difficulty gradings; stunning action photography; refreshment stops and local knowledge; and a detailed appendix. Also included is a link to downloadable GPX files.
