Staying overnight in Kinlochleven soon - likely to have time for a quick 2-3 hour ride in the afternoon or evening. I've ridden the Ciaran Path and Devil's Staircase (out and back from KLL) previously.
Any other recommendations?
Mostly ride Aberfoyle and Tweed Valley off-piste, to give an idea of what I'd consider survivable.
Have you got a car there? There are some trails around Glencoe Lochan, not long but quite a few of them. Or Glenachulish, although not sure how they’re looking at the moment. Or the Argo which starts at the top of Am Meall and runs all the way back down to the visitor centre - that’s a fun trail.
Check Strava, and then climb to whatever descent(s) you fancy.
Yep, got the motor - had heard that there was some stuff at Glencoe (McTrailrider did a video, IICR). Will look into Am Meall - cheers.
If it were me I'd do something from the old Dudes Enduro races- ride up the road that leads past the Mamore Lodge, keep riding up that road, go around the little cottage, ride up the road a bit more, push up the road for a while... Eventually, after riding further up the road, turn right and ride and push up the path that leads up the opposite hillside. Then you've got a single, occsaionally very technical descent with a million line choices that leads all the way back to kinlochleven. It's probably the only trail I've ever done that rides best in heavy rain btw
If you've got time, repeat some of the climb but turn off at the deer fence near the concrete bench for a shorter descent.
Cheers, NW - I knew that there had been a few enduros in that area. That sounds ideal.
If you want a Strava map or picture or whatever you call it of the Argo and lochan trails I can send you one. No worries if not.

Magic, cheers.
