Dunkeld for those that don't know is in Perthshire and has always been known for DH, but in recent times there has been a fair few trails been cut into the 3 hills of the steep enduro variety that surround the village, i was there today for the first time in years and what a cracking day, dry trails, sunshine and a new place for me to play, we did some trails on all 3 hills all with different degrees of GNAAAAR , here's a wee map from Trailforks, I know there's a couple of guys on here planning a trip up here soon so if you can fit it in try and include this place, it really is worth the detour www.trailforks.com/region/dunkeld/?lat=56.56773405944063&lon=-3.646073651123065&z=12&m=hybrid&season=2couple of crappy photo's Not my video, just pinched from yoochoob Dunkeld

That looks good Kev ...and those trails look "new" ? That's got to be near to your own back yard also far as travelling goes too . I have got a route for Dunkeld ...somewhere but from memory it's more XC ..and on the Queens Road ?

It's about 1.5 hrs away Neil, the one you know goes north from Dunkeld in a loop, these trail are either side of the village taking in The Hermitage where the DH track is and is also a country park, nice walks etc, and Newtyle hill and Birnam hill, all awesome stuff

Talking to a few good riders who were at the Scottish Enduro Round 1 there and they said some of the Stages were scary as fuck, especially after the rain. Made me want to go and try them out
