Extensive riding on the edge of Banchory on Royal Deeside, spanning Scolty Hill, the wider Blackhall Forest and the Shooting Greens. Over 20km of cross-country trails sit alongside the long-standing Scolty downhill tracks and plenty of unmarked singletrack, swooping descents and challenging climbs hidden through the forest, with the family-friendly Deeside Way running through for easier riding. Very popular with walkers at weekends, so pick your lines carefully. Pay-and-display car park at Scolty; cafes, shops and bike servicing in Banchory.
