Mountain biking by Glen Tanar

You can get even more off the beaten track in this beautiful glen if you go by bike. Both family groups and experienced mountain bikers have a great choice of biking trails here. Choose from flat, mid-length circular loops from around 5km in length, to challenging long-distance rides, high in the hills. Experienced mountain bikers regularly make it to the top of Mount Keen, on what is probably the UK’s highest bike ride, at 939m high.

Pick up a leaflet showing all the marked trails at the Glen Tanar Visitor Centre. If a day trip isn’t enough, come and stay in one of our holiday cottages, and spend several days exploring some of the best biking country in the Scottish Highlands.
