Mountain Biking at Ardtornish
Ardtornish is crisscrossed with paths, roads and forestry tracks which makes it perfect for exploring by mountain bike. There are routes suitable for every rider with terrain ranging from hard packed forestry tracks and fire breaks to coastal pathways .
The walks detailed on our walking page are all suitable for use by mountain bikes and from the saddle you can even explore more than one in a day.
If you don’t know your way around the peninsula yet, talk to us for some great ideas for places to cycle. Discover the forest tracks at the side of Loch Arienas and don’t forget to look out for golden eagles, sea eagles, otters, pine martins and an array of seabird life. Or maybe you fancy trying the road that leads from Lochaline to Drimnin, along the shores of the Sound of Mull. Whatever you choose, you’ll love discovering Ardtornish and the Morvern peninsula for yourself.
Home to the UCI Mountain Biking Downhill World Cup, The Nevis Range in Fort William offers a fantastic family day out and trails to challenge even the most experienced riders. Additionally, set in what is arguably Scotland’s most famous Glen, the Glencoe Mountain Resort has trails suitable for all abilities. Both bike parks are approximately 1 hour 30 minute drive from the Estate.
