Pubil

Highlight • River

When planning a visit to Pubil, a remote area in the Scottish Highlands, it's advisable to schedule your trip during the shoulder seasons—April to May or September to October. These months offer moderate weather, fewer tourists, and a reduced presence of midges, the small biting insects prevalent in the Highlands during summer. Additionally, visiting during these periods allows you to experience the vibrant spring blooms or the stunning autumn foliage, enhancing the natural beauty of the region.

North Shore Trail, Loch Lyon

Highlight • Trail

This doubletrack trail along the northern shores of Loch Lyon is a real treat, you just need to look at the photos to see that!

The way is mostly rideable on a gravel bike or mountain bike and is pretty flat, so you can take your time to admire the incredible views down the valley with the blue water surrounded by great rising shapes of the hillsides.
