Guided mountain bike rides
This year we will offer two exciting guided mountain bike rides. The guided rides will take you out into the hills to sample some of the very best riding that Harris has to offer. They will be tailored to different abilities.
The rides will be mainly off-road with mud, rocks and water aplenty! There will be challenging climbs and exhilarating descents to reward riders with a reasonable level of fitness. The experienced guides will be on hand to give tips and advice and spot some of our wildlife.
A helmet is essential, those without will be turned away! Suitable Bikes and Helmets can be provide by the Scaladale Centre for an additional fee but must be booked in advance. Please contact info@scaladale.co.uk It is recommended that you bring gloves and other protection, some food and drink, waterproofs and spare layer.

Beginners guided ride
This ride is suitable for riders of all abilities. It would be a great introduction to the sport of mountain biking.
The ride will be mostly on double track paths with some soft patches. After a great descent the ride will contour along side a beautiful loch before climbing to a pass. This is where the real fun starts, with a long, often boggy single track decent down to the sea, where we will be met here by our transport back to the start.
