~That glen finglas loop is a known route – double track all the way and very steep one side with a lot of climbing IIRC – I have never ridden it
Yep, excellent route that gives easy access to a real big mountain feeling.
Only done it anti-clockwise (the shallower climb) and its still very steep in places. I would expect its hike-a-bike done clockwise.
Possible to pick up crazy speed on the way down – worth keeping in mind its a long way from help and not going too crazy.
From Callander take the marked path along Loch Venachar to get out to Brig o Turk – lovely little path.
I’d plan on it taking near enough your full 4hrs from Callander. I did it with my Dad from Loch Katrine which is closer and that was just under 3 hours moving time.
comrie croft is well worth going to – much more “natural” feeling than most trail centres although its years since I have been
Agree, its been a couple of years since I went, but very much a different feel to most trail centres and enough there to keep you occupied for an evening.
