Whitelee Wind Farm Visitor Centre

Highlight • Cafe

The visitor centre and cafe at Whitelee are a super good visit location for you and the family. It is educational, interesting, and it has a great cafe. In fact, it is fascinating to hear about the UK’s largest onshore wind farm. You can also hire bicycles here if you want to ride around the rather large wind farm complex.

Spine Road of Whitelee Wind Farm

Highlight • Cycleway

Undulating gravel road along the Spine Road of Whitelee Wind Farm, the largest onshore wind farm in the UK. These tracks are mostly for access to the wind turbines and create a fab network of gravel trails which are a great way to access Glasgow from the south or for a local ride from the city.

Whitlee Wind Farm is on the Eaglesham Moor in Scotland. It is the largest on-shore wind farm in the UK and the second largest in Europe with 215 Siemens and Alstom turbines that have a total capacity of 539 megawatts. Due to its close proximity to Glasgow it is one of the first examples of a large scale wind farm in close proximity to a large population. The wind farm is an impressive site and epic to cycle through. The Isle of Arran can be seen in the background on a clear day. Beneath the wind farm sits an extensive network of great quality gravel tracks to work your way through.
