Embark on a challenging touring bicycle adventure through the remote Scottish Highlands with the Great North Trail: Corrour and Loch Ossian Loop. This difficult 36.2-mile (58.3 km) route will have you gaining 2198 feet (670 metres) in elevation, offering a true sense of isolation and wildness as you cycle past the tranquil waters of Loch Ossian and through expansive moorland and forests. Expect to complete this demanding journey in approximately 5 hours and 9 minutes, fully immersed in stunning mountain views.
Planning your visit requires careful consideration, as Corrour Railway Station, the starting point, is the UK's highest and most remote mainline station, accessible only by train. You cannot reach the trailhead by road, making the journey to the start an integral part of the experience. Be prepared for varied terrain under your wheels, including rough gravel sections and potentially boggy ground, especially if you ride after rainfall. Always check local conditions before you set out.
This particular section of the Great North Trail stands out for its unique access and profound sense of wilderness. The necessity of arriving by train adds an adventurous layer to the experience, setting it apart from many other routes. You will find yourself deep within the Highlands, where the vast landscapes and the possibility of spotting Ben Nevis in the distance underscore the region's untamed beauty and ecological significance.
