bike trips promise to be exciting, rewarding and great value

class mountain biking -
so come join us!
Based
in the centre of Dumfries and Galloway
we have 5 of the 7stanes trails within 50 minutes of our door.
Add to this some fantastic natural singletrack at Drumlanrig plus the largest forest
park in Britain (300 square miles) riddled with tracks and trails and you can
see why this is the spiritual home of
mountain biking in Scotland.
Dumfries
and Galloway has been called the highlands of the lowlands and whilst not as
rugged looking as the highlands the terrain is no less challenging and remote
for avid mountain bikers.
Come
on one of our fantastic short holidays, be tested further on an epic week
long trip or contact us to arrange a fantastic tailor made trip to suit your
skills and budget. We can organise all transport, accommodation, baggage
transfers and bike hire and provide you with the holiday of a lifetime.
2 Day Trip
Come
and ride for 2 days with us anytime! Whether it's escaping for a
weekend or a much needed mid week break we have the solution for you.
We will organise all aspects of your mountain biking trip to maximise
your riding time and minimise the faff!
Choose from 2 days on
the 7stanes trails, mix and match trails from Dalbeattie, Kirroughtree,
Mabie, Ae or Glentrool or perhaps you'd like to try out some stunning
natural singletrack at Drumlanrig or maybe even take in a less cycled
route through the Galloway forests.
3 Day Trip
Our
Three Day Thrillers are mostly on Bank holiday weekend meaning that you
don't even have to take a day off work to get the best of the South
West. We aim to maximise your time on the trails and will choose routes
and trails that suit your skills, experience, what's open, the weather
conditions and how many beers you've had the night before!
7 Day Trip
Don't
think that because this route isn't in the highlands that it is easy!
This route is a challenging coast to coast mountain biking adventure.
We start at Portpatrick on the West Coast and follow a stunning route
that we reckon is the biking equivalent of cycling the Southern Upland
Way.
We will experience the trails at Kirroughtree, the
breathtaking scenery of Glentrool, Drumlanrig's natural singletrack - the
birthplace of the bicycle. Ae forest, the amazing Moffat Hills,
Innerleithens' challenging trails before crossing the Lammermuir Hills
to reach the North Sea.
Tailor Made Trips and Treks
At
trailbrakes we know how important your holidays are to you. To make
this a holiday to remember why not let us know what you'd really like
to do. Is there a particular trail you'd love to ride?
Or an
area you'd like to visit? Perhaps there's another activity nearby that
you might like to do in addition to cycling or somewhere you'd love to
visit in the region. You might be organising a stag or hen weekend and
want to do some biking along with some evening activities!
Maybe
you have a burning desire to climb the areas largest hill - the
Merrick. Possibly you know of a place you'd particularly like to see?
Take a look at the tourist board website and collect some ideas. Then
simply let us know and we can put together an itinerary for you that
will pack in as many activities as possible for your holiday.
