Cycling at Whitelee
Information on cycle routes at Whitelee Windfarm.
Whitelee offers a range of cycling opportunities, from waymarked routes to self-led rides and even a network of singletrack mountain biking trails.
Signposting of all routes starts at turbine 40.
The Lochgoin Circuit and Blackwood Hill routes remain popular, but for those wanting a longer ride there are 3 waymarked routes which can be followed using the coloured arrows on timber posts. These routes range from 20.5 km to 34.6 km and take in a number of points of interest.
The windfarm offers an almost infinite number of self-led ride options across its 150km+ network of largely traffic free roads.
For those looking for a more technical challenge there are 4km of singletrack mountain biking trails at Brown Hill, just 700m from Whitelee Visitor Centre. The site offers blue and red graded trails, a skills loop and pump track to suit a wide range of users and skill levels.
A picnic and viewing area with tables and wet weather shelters are available at the start of the trails.
