Cycling in the Highlands will provide you with wide open spaces, dramatic scenery and clean fresh air with routes to suit all abilities, from dedicated mountain biking centres and forest trails to quiet highland roads for something a little more relaxing.
The Highlands Hotel has a number of mountain bikes of different sizes available for daily hire. In addition Altnaharra is on the main John O’Groats to Lands End cycle route and, being some 75 miles from the northern tip, is a popular pit-stop for cyclists. Covered, lockable garaging is available for guests with bicycles.
From 2010 the Hotel has agreed to be one of the first official pit stops for Ride Across Britain – a charity event with 650 participants hoping to complete the journey. For full details see www.rideacrossbritain.com
