Percentage of Route Off Road: 70%
This supported gravel challenge is the best way to see the all that is special about the Loch Lomond and Trossachs National Park. Climbing in stunning forest gravel from the start, the biggest climbs and the bulk of the elevation gain are in the first half of this ride.
After a punchy departure from Dunoon, the 2 main climbs of the route are the Curra Lochain Climb with 5km at 6% followed shortly by the aptly named 'Rest and be Thankful' climb with 5km at 5%. Both of these have delightful off road views to keep the pedals turning.
From now on each pedalstroke takes you closer to Aberfoyle and the final 5km gravel descent to finish and savour the experience on this epic day out.
