Greenock Cut

Highlight • Structure

Start at either Loch Thom / Greenock Cut Visitor Centre or at Overton Road, Greenock where there is both ample parking. Decent quality circular route with slight undulations that aren't too strenuous.

Loch Thom

Best done on a gravel bike due to a rough track coming from Kilmalcolm direction.

Corlick Hill

Highlight • Summit

If you're taking in in as part of a loop there's no bike track up from the west side, so be prepared to carry it in places. Great gravel track down through the windfarm on the east side.
