What he said.

The lollipop route is my favourite version of Torridon too.

I was thinking of the Beinn Damph route but was wondering if there was any others?

Don't do the loop that goes behind Liathach. It's about 6km of offroad bikeability, 10km of road & 5km of hike a bike that'll trash your shoes.

Theres a bit of a clue in the name on the beinn damh route, the singletrack at the side of the loch is a river bed but rideable slowly, lots n lots of pushing n cursing but the descent to annat is superb. Heading there myself friday afternoon from the wirral after visiting last year n loving the place.chay ,would u mind if i tagged along?

Is the lollipop route the one with minimal tarmac? GPX anyone?

@Paulmart the lolipop route avoids the tarmac in Glen Torridon and gives the 2 best descents.
