ben wyvis

i’m going to be up near ben wyvis next weekend and was thinking of heading up there on my bike (weather depending…) Trying to find routes – anyone have any details? is the walkers path from garve the best way up?

ta muchly

There’s not a lot in Garve – not even a post office/ shop.

little Garve ( just past Gorstan on A835) is good starting place

Stevenfallon’s take on it

Watch the water bars coming down – snake bitetastic.

If the snows / mist /rain lets you its worth cutting across to little wyvis too – ‘look where I’ve been’ and great switch backs – Andrew Allen’s -manages the hill -owns the deer herd – he’s a nice guy but and won’t take to kindly if you come too low and bother them.

Gordymac did a write up of a big loop here

scroll down the news page a bit.

cheers – i meant going up from garbat, like in steve fallon’s route. so, is it all dead easy, given gordymac went up on a crosser?

I’ll be staying in evanton so i could do the big loop…

From what im seeing from my window, it’s pretty heavy with snow atm.

I was gonna say – I was driving past on Wednesday (from the West) and there was a fair amount of snow.

@epicyclo – every time I see that bike in a photo it makes me think ‘Monster Trucks!’

Should see what it can ride over 🙂 It is only limited by my lack of ability.

Plenty good riding near Ben Wyvis without going up it. Check with Square Wheels in Strathpeffer for some good trail maps.
