Bike: 7stanes Glentress
Scottish Borders | Peebles | Mountain bike trails | ★★★★★ [Views help with the relentless climb to Buzzards Nest] Does Peebles have the best mountain biking centre in Britain? As an all-rounder, probably: 7stanes Glentress is notable in having superb trails at all grades, from two gentle green circuits to a frightening-looking 29 km black route. Trails of all grades start from Glentress Peel car park, with a secondary hub at Buzzard's Nest accessible by a steep climb on two tyres or four. All of the trails are wonderfully varied - even the higher of the two green routes is 60% singletrack - with the red and black trails approaching 600 metres above sea level. From a start height of under 200 metres, that should make for a hell of a climb (we haven't dared try it yet)... and descents to match. And Innerleithen's quieter red and downhill trails are just around the corner. [7stanes Glentress] Location & info 📌 7stanes Glentress ★★★★★ Glentress Peel is
