Hard road ride. Very good fitness required. Mostly well-paved surfaces and easy to ride. The starting point of the route is right next to a parking lot.

Straiton Village

Highlight • Settlement

Mainly built in the 18th century, albeit with a few more modern additions, Straiton retains its 1700s charm.

Interestingly the main location for the film 'The Match', where two rival pubs played against each other in a football match.

So at least you know you'll be able to get a pint if you stop off mid ride!

Rolling descent to Glentrool

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Heading south this is a wonderful rolling descent that seems to go on forever with beautiful scenery. Hardly had to turn a pedal for miles. Suspect it would be a long slog in the other direction, but not too steep.

Red Deer Range Scenic Road

Highlight (Segment) • Viewpoint

In any case, take enough food with you. Really very deserted between New Galloway and Newton Stewart. But that's the attraction.
