The excuse of a wedding is taking me up to Scotland. Staying on the Ardtonish estate near Morvern. Can anyone tell me about or show me where to get the low-down on local riding please?

ardtonish in Morven is not near Oban unless you swim...

I presume you are heading there via Corran ferry just near Fort William?

Lots of ace touring and road riding, on generally quiet roads. The bigger hill tracks in my experience all disappeared into boggy mess / carry a bike, but there is riding. Strontian village and Glen has some lovely singletrack and rocky double track, right from village shop area. A good few out and back, with a beach or hill walk on forest track or estate road. Do not underestimate some of the lovely potters on non technical terrain, along lochs, out to lighthouses etc there is in the area.

One of my weeks of work there a few years back.
