Great for: Lovely views of the River Tay. Family friendly!
Benefits: Conveniently starts and finishes in a town. Relatively flat, although a little bumpy in places! Mostly woodland and field cycling, on tracks.
Length: Approx. 12km round trip
Park in any car park in Aberfeldy and head out of Aberfeldy on the A827 (towards Pitlochry) past Dewars World of Whisky on the right. After the cemetery, turn left and follow the signpost to Grandtully. You’ll follow the Old Railway track through 2 gates and cycle over a wooden bridge. Then there are 2 more gates before you arrive in Grandtully. From here you can either cycle back the way you came or cross the bridge over the River Tay to Strathtay village, where you will turn left and take the quiet road for around 8km to a footbridge after a left turn. Cross the Golf Course and find yourself back in Aberfeldy!
This is a popular walking route so please look out for pedestrians! Have a great day out!
