Route Stops

Arrive in picturesque town of Callander, the ‘Gateway to the Highlands’.

This section leads out of Callander, through woods alongside the shores of Loch Lubnaig. It follows the loch on a well-defined cycle path for most of the distance, to reach the village of Strathyre by crossing a wooden suspension bridge at the River Balvag. It is possible to detour off the path, signposted approximately 3 km out of Callander, to visit the Falls of Leny.

Leave Strathyre by following a forest track above the east side of the glen, passing by the Mhor 84 Motel and on to a cycle path. Heading towards Balquidder until you reach the line of the old railway above Lochearnhead. Follow this north through Glen Ogle, before descending through woods past the Falls of Dochart to reach Killin.

Congratulations – you have completed the Trossachs Trek! After breakfast, it is time to set off on your onward journey.
