Dumfries & Galloway is famed for its stunning landscapes and coastline and traveling by bicycle is the ideal way to explore here. So bring your bicycle, or hire one while you're here, and enjoy a thoroughly invigorating break. We have lots of off-road trails guaranteed to get your pulse racing and miles and miles of quiet country roads that will take you to wonderful pubs, historic sites and bustling market towns. You'll even find the only museum in Scotland totally devoted to the history of cycling: Drumlanrig Castle. See the magnificent collection of bikes, dating from the nineteenth century to the present day.

If an Off road challenge appeals to you more, then make sure you take time to visit one of the 7 stanes! Located at Ae, Mabie, Dalbeattie, Kirroughtree and Glentrool forests, these new cycling centres are still being developed and are sure to make you come back for more. The first new trail at Dalbeattie is an essential visit for those who enjoy the technical trails. At over 20 miles it is a great challenge!
