We left Hamish at Taynuilt and took the train back to Tyndrum. You'll need to book your bikes on the train, its free though! We found that the trains bike hooks aren't big enough to fit fatty wheels, take a sling with you for each bike and you can strap your bike to the hook. Thankfully the train attendant was very helpful. The distance of the route is around 33m / 54km, get ready for a great trip. It can be done in a day but why rush it! ;-)

@bobwightman1054 Год назад

We did Glen Kinglass earlier this year but then headed up the east side of Loch Etive, we camped on the lochside. Up via the lochside, boggy and a lot of brush to push through, up the road to the Kingshouse then back via the WHW to Victoria Bridge. A lot of pushing along the lochside, a fat bike would let you ride a bit more - needs more traffic!

@ontheadventuretrails-scotl9389 Год назад

Loads to explore around the area. All part of the adventure. Keep exploring! 😊🤘😂

The great advantage Scotland has over lots of other countries is ease of access to stunning places both time and distance. Less than 2 to 3 hrs for most of the population and you're in heaven, weather permitting.

@@ontheadventuretrails-scotl9389 I have some films on youtube. Swedish voice only but I´m planning on english text. Search for Pelle Lindbla uteliv. (Playlist) I also do a lot of fatbiking on snow. I have a cottage at a place called Grovelsjon which is a hotspot for hikers and bikers both winter and summer. It´s just on the border of Norway which means higher mountains and wilder nature in the neigborhood.

So just picked a video at random. Enjoyed trying to find your locations on google maps as I've never heard of Windsor ( except where our queen lives) and Essex County ( except that bit of land to the east of London) and loved the sound track. It's a great way to see somebody else's back Yard.
