Book

Dunoon on the Move, together with Cowal Mountain Bike Club, invite you to explore Dunoon’s surroundings by bike!

We will head up through the back of the town to the Bishop’s Glen where we will skirt round the reservoir and head on to the forestry tracks. This will then lead us up towards the back of John Street where we will descend to Heronlea. We will cross the main road and pick up the Squirrel Trail in the Holiday Village. This takes us behind the caravans, through lovely old woodland and brings us out on the disused part of Cowal Golf Course. We then head along quiet streets and cut down to the seafront, picking up the cycle path to head back to the old pier.

We won’t be spending much time on main roads, just using them to join up parts of the route. It will mainly be forest tracks finishing off with a scenic cycle path.

  • We can stop for plenty of breathers and photos!
  • Please wear helmets and waterproofs.
  • We never leave anyone behind.

Please sign up using the link – tickets available from 31 March 23:30pm.

Dunoon on the Move aims to make cycling, walking and wheeling accessible, fun and sociable. Dunoon on the Move has been developed by Dunoon Community Development Trust in partnership with HITRANS.
