Kirroughtree Red Trail (7stanes)

Highlight • MTB Park

Amazing trails that wind their way through the trees for mountain biking and e-bikes (maybe even a big-tired gravel bike if it's dry). Loads of fun!

One of the 7-Stanes mountain-bike trails areas in south Scotland. Well worth your time to find and ride all seven!

This section starts off in the woods with a couple of burn crossings, then out on to open moorland. It can be twisty, but flows well and makes a really nice descent
