A Gravel cycle around Loch Ard Forest in the Trossachs of Scotland.

Aberfoyle is recognised as one of the best areas in the UK for Gravel cycling – AKA Gravelfoyle.

This cycle follows well established gravel roads around Loch Ard Forest. A Strava route for the event is available to logged-in members.

The event might appear short, but we will be on rough ground with a fair bit of climbing. A reasonable level of fitness and confidence on tricky surfaces is required.

A gravel or mountain bike is best suited for this event. However, any other kind of bike with wide tyres should be fine. It is essential that your brakes are in good order.

A good idea of what to expect would be on the upcoming ODL event:

This is a group cycle, and nobody will get left behind or find themselves cycling alone.

There will be two leaders for this event, myself, and Douglas. Both of us will have GPS devices and able to guide the group along the way.

This is one of the most scenic areas in Scotland and a great place to enjoy a days cycling on forest tracks and quiet roads.
