About Fearnoch cycle loop

There are many forest road junctions so take care to follow the correct waymarkers. The route goes through an area of native woodland and the village of Fearnoch before returning back to the quarry.

Cycle from the quarry and take a sharp left across the River Luachraggan, then continue down the edge of the forest along the Eas na Laraiche Moire.

For your own safety, please be aware of timber lorries using the forest roads and observe all prohibition and warning signs.
