I'm moving to Blairgowrie next month and was wondering if anyone knew of any places to XC and DH around the town?
Cheers,

very near pitlochry and theres tons to ride there from what i've read. plus there's plenty of hills in the area. just go exploring. i lived there for a short period of time and found a route way out into the hills but for the life of me cant remember where it was. do a search for pitlochry rides on here and on google and i'm sure something will come up

Bit south of you, but there's some nice trails over the Sidlaws.

Thanks, yeah I know the Sidlaws well. Just wondering if there was something within 5 miles of Blairgowrie to ride out to for a quick spin. Will be doing loads of searching when i move there.

Hi Stefan,
From the town, up Upper Allan st, past Burnhead, left on to Knockie towards Gormack, and that's you on the Cateran Trail. Follow that to Brig'o'Cally hotel. Stop there for a shandy then head back the other side of the hotel and follow the trail up in to Blackcraig Forest, take the main track across Cochrage Muir then down towards Middleton Farm, down Marlee hill and out at the Marlee hotel.
That's a decent XC outing
For DH stuff there's a track up at Ballo hill by Campmuir/Abernyte.
Paul.
