Join us on a ride of the renowned Dunkeld Mast MTB Trails in Scotland as we seek to answer the question many riders ask before visiting: Are these trails too hard for me? They have a reputation in Scotland for being tough but are some of our favourite trails to ride in the area. In this MTB vlog, we’ll share the stoke and sketchy moments as we ride them from an average rider perspective.
Link to the Dunkeld enduro race: • Scotland's Dunkeld End...
Link to the Hermitage/Craigvinean trails: • Scaring Myself on Dunk...
From long steep descents, tight switchbacks and technical sections, we’ll showcase the trails that make Dunkeld a must-visit destination for mountain biking in Scotland.
Captured on Go Pro, we share different rider POV from both of us on the trails at Newtyle Hill, also known as the mast. The scenery is beautiful and the descents are unique. Whether you're an experienced rider or a beginner looking for your next adventure, hopefully this video will help you get a feel for the difficulty of these Scottish MTB trails.

Great riding in some nice weather! You'll be please to know that there are public dig days being organised for mid May and start of June getting the trails ready for a summer of riding. Also for easier trails, try Birnam Hill, particularly the three flow trails above the train station. We've been working hard to get them clear of fallen trees and establish diversions! Easier trails also include Hush Hush, Otters Pocket, Scooby Doo, Dalmarnock Descent, Mutt House, Doggy, Sophia and PGL so easily a full day for intermediate riders but check trailforks for up to date info on any closures. Always worth popping into Progression Bikes for local knowledge and advice too. Enjoy and have fun!

Thanks, it was a super weekend! We’re not there often but always enjoy it when we do visit. Really good info, thanks for commenting! I’ve pinned the comment so it can be useful to anyone watching the vlog. It can be hard on a first visit to know the easier trails and link them up so some good trails/advice there!

@@LauraJaneWeeTamMTBGreat stuff. Give me a shout next time you are up, or want to plan a trip and we can link up some of those trails. I've got the bike shop (Progression Bikes) and help run the Tayside Trails Association.

thanks! We're pretty familiar with the hills directly around Dunkeld but keen to venture over and explore Dalmarnock sometime - rode the descent trail but heard there are lots more good trails in there! May take you up on that :)

Absolutely. There's such a variety of trails. Glad the vid gives an idea of what to expect from the mast - one of those locations that always had a bit of a rep. Thanks!

I’ve never liked the mast trails personally. Especially in the summer when really overgrown. It’s like a game of Russian roulette or when the next drop or obstacle is coming
@LauraJaneWeeTamMTB
@LauraJaneWeeTamMTB 3 месяца назад
That actually brings back memories of sketchy summer rides there haha. Bit too much risk when it's like that. They are running really well now though - probably best in spring or autumn then!
