    i’m going to be up near ben wyvis next weekend and was thinking of heading up there on my bike (weather depending…) Trying to find routes – anyone have any details? is the walkers path from garve the best way up?

    There’s not a lot in Garve – not even a post office/ shop.

    little Garve ( just past Gorstan on A835) is good starting place

    Stevenfallon’s take on it

    Watch the water bars coming down – snake bitetastic.

    If the snows / mist /rain lets you its worth cutting across to little wyvis too – ‘look where I’ve been’ and great switch backs – Andrew Allen’s -manages the hill -owns the deer herd – he’s a nice guy but and won’t take to kindly if you come too low and bother them.

    I was gonna say – I was driving past on Wednesday (from the West) and there was a fair amount of snow.

    Should see what it can ride over 🙂 It is only limited by my lack of ability.

    Plenty good riding near Ben Wyvis without going up it. Check with Square Wheels in Strathpeffer for some good trail maps.
