Planning a trip next week for a couple of days. Anyone know any good routes around there? Never been but done Aviemore a lot, Laggan and all that so no need to repeat that lot on the way up.
Any natural or even trail centre suggestions in that neck of the woods would be much appreciated.
Contin forest just outside Strathpeffer where they hold the Strathpuffer 24 hr race has some pretty good bits. I would suggest popping into Square Wheels cycles in the village square and they will point you in the right direction.
lots of trails beyond the puffer course, found some excellent downhills last time i was there !

+1 I would suggest do the strathpuffer route as a guide but follow the locals tire tracks when they grab your interest. Lots of fun to be had!
Sh*t just realised who it is that started the thread! I have the OS 1:25k map for the area and a map of the SP route dude. Can drop them off at some point. Lots of fun to be had up there! All of it will be fun for you + your other half. Its a nice balance.
When are you going up?
David.
Golspie and Balblair aren't too far away.
Sweet, thanks everyone. I'll stay local but might have a look at Golspie and Balblair if they're fairly close too.
David - dunno yet, whenever I can get there! I'll give you a shout in the "real world" before I go.
I get discount emails for that hotel I was telling you about. To be honest tho make up a reasonable offer and say you saw it in the sunday paper (normally £80pp for 2 nights dinner bed and breakfast) and they will usually just go aye whatever thats fine.
