National Cycle Week - Camster Cycle
Trail
This is National Cycling Week. Why not dig out the bike and
head for the Camster Cycle Trail?
Head up the Camster road from the A99
and soon before the Cairns you'll come to the starting point.
It is a round trip of 14 miles from the start back to the start which
means doing a bit on the A 99. Take some care and the views of the south
east coast of Caithness are worth the effort. However you can choose to do
as much or as little as you want off-road if you prefer. The Trail is
undulating but middle with the occasional use of a low gear would be more
than sufficient to cycle it. It's suitable for all the family but
youngsters might find going the whole way too much.
Even on a windy day there is hardly any
wind in the forest and you never know what's round the next bend! |
