Yup – agreed – Golspie is fantastic and can be knocked out pretty quickly – do it a couple of times so that you can do the top half more justice the second time 🙂
Second the shout for Balblair – shame (or a good thing depending on your perspective) that it doesn’t get more use (same is true of Golspie although it has been a while since I have been). Cracking trails and a bit different to other centres due to the sheer quantity of riding on grippy granite rocks.
If you have time, try and squeeze in a wee loop of the Puffer course too. Always worth a spin 🙂 this is near Strathpeffer and if you need local advice see that good people at Square Wheels bikes in Strathpeffer.
