Kirkhill Loop Forest Trail
This waymarked red route encircles the heart of Kirkhill forest. This route is on forest road for most of the way, and gives terrific views over Bennachie and the north on the northern section of the Loop. There are only a few steep gradients, making this an ideal family cycle.
The main forest road from the car park to the Loop is now also waymarked, so less experienced cyclists can avoid the rough and steep White Spur waymarked route. Cyclists should stay aware that they share many of the routes with horse riders, and should follow the forest cycle code.
