Devil's Staircase

Highlight (Segment) • Viewpoint

The Devil's Staircase is exactly that... great for hiking, non-rideable for most bike riders (talking of the most experienced riders here on a good day). Makes for a great hike-a-bike though and it still beats riding the busy car invested asphalt road if you ask me. Wide tires needed for the descent on the other side of the mountain!

Devil's Staircase Trail

Highlight (Segment) • Climb

The climb up the Devils Staircase is in short one big hike-a-bike, especially with lugage while bikepacking. The path up on the mountains and down again on the other side are however totally worth the hassle of hiking up! Not only will you enjoy some amazing and lonely views in the middle of nowhere, but also you'll skip the busy car used road down in the valley.

Highlight • Pub

The legendary inn serves good food all day long. Local game dishes, Scottish beef and Scottish salmon. But vegetarian dishes are also offered.
