About this tour

Highlands of Scotland bike tour: from Pitlochry by bicycle – castles, lochs and glens.

We offer a range of half day and full day cycling tours (similar to our Edinburgh tours) in the Perthshire area of highland Scotland.

These guided cycle rides are a fabulous way to experience the spectacular scenery and wildlife of Scotland. We will pass castles, lochs, mountains, rivers and glens.

Our classic tour involves a 40 mile ride, cycling past Killiecrankie and Blair Atholl Castle.

We follow a beautiful burn (stream) through a highland glen, with plenty of opportunity for spotting highland wildlife such as the red squirrrel and red deer.

We find a delightful highland cafe serving soups and cakes, scones, tea and other delights. We cycle the shores of Loch Tummel to bring us back to Pitclochry.

Pitlochry is a 1 hr 50 min picturesque train ride from Edinburgh.

What People Say about this tour

Brilliant few hours

We booked the city tour which took you through the city centre and out to Portobello. Apart from a couple of hills at the beginning the ride itself is relatively flat. There were only the two of us plus our guide, Andy, which was great. What a brilliant few hours we had with Andy! When…

Great ride around beautiful Edinburgh and to Portobello

Super friendly efficient service. Kathy was so helpful in arranging our booking. Our guide was just lovely, Sandrine, who was so knowledgeable and friendly made the experience really good. COVID-19 responsible and we couldn’t have asked for a better travel bike tour experience. Such a fab way to see the city and more! Thank you

Coast and Castles

When we last visited and took the city centre tour the coast and bridges tour was recommended.

This is a beautiful ride along the coastline of…
