Aberfoyle to Loch Katrine Cycle Route
| Cycle Steps | |
| Starting in the car park of the pier, just off the A821. Head north along the water board road. | |
| The road heads north west following parallel to the loch all the way road. When you get to the end of the loch, approx 6 miles on, it doubles back on it's self and you shortly come to another pier in Stronachlachar. | |
| Taking the road(Lochard road) leaving south of Stronachlachar taking you all the way through Loch Ard forest, Kinlochard, Milton and finally into Aberfoyle. | |
| When you arrive in Aberfoyle turn left, and head north along Duke's pass(A821) and back to the beginning. | |
| All the forests around Aberfoyle have great mountain bike routes that used to be used by the Scottish Forest Mountain Competition races. | |

| Good route. Finished it off by going round the Forest drive for a bit of downhill bumps. | ||

| Great wild feel, yet all on lovely tarmac, lots of native trees and bird life, some great descents. I think I will be back to do this many times in the future as its a nice distance for an easy day. | ||

| I started from Abefoyle, which gave an easy finish. It took me 5 hours of steady cycling, with breaks every hour for 5 mins. I took the sustran route out of Aberfoyle, which runs parallel to the A road. This was good, but I found it difficult to get back to the A road, and had to carry my bike for 300m over bracken. Overall a good route without too many cars or people (Friday in October). | ||

| Started from the macdonald holiday hotel,into Aberfoyle then turn left up the dukes pass road , some parts of this road are 10% climbs , but you are rewarded with some great down hill sections until the ferry landing. Then the private road which is closed to traffic , around the north bank of loch Katrine, again lots of up and down, then follow the road back to Aberfoyle, great route , took 2 hrs, 15 mins. Excellent | ||
