Hybrid bike hire

Our new Trek fleet are the very best bicycles available to hire in the north of Scotland. All of our bikes are replaced every year. Our hybrid hire bike is the Trek 7.2FX. The FX has a lightweight aluminium frame, 24 speed Shimano gears, mudguards and a luggage rack suitable for carrying panniers. If your route is mainly on country roads or good quality paths, then this is a much faster, more comfortable ride than a mountain bike.

Mountain bike hire

If your route takes you off-road you'll need one of our mountain bikes. Our Trek 4700 hardtail mountain bikes are among the best mountain bikes you can hire. With 30 speed Shimano gears, hydraulic disc brakes, and suspension forks with handlebar mounted lockout they are perfect for the Great Glen Way cycle route, cross country touring or any of the mountain bike trail centres in the Scottish Highlands.

Road bike hire

New for 2013 we're excited to offer a fleet of road bikes to hire. We've got Trek 1.2 road bikes in six different sizes so you can be assured of a good fit. These bikes have lightweight aluminum frames and carbon fibre forks. We've chosen the 27 speed option so even the steepest hills should be achievable. Tese bikes are all about speed so the only accessory fitted as standard is a bottle holder. If you want to do a bit of light touring we're happy to fit a small, seat-post mounted, rack and pannier set.

We suscribe to Cyclists Touring Club Bike Hire Code to ensure your comfort and safety. Each bike is thoroughly inspected between trips and regularily serviced to ensure trouble-free cycling.

Cyclist Transport

Our cyclist transport service can trabsfer up to six cyclists plus bikes in the comfort of our executive class VW Caravelle. Perfect for one-way trips like the Great Glen Way, shuttles between Inverness and the ferry terminals for Orkney and The Western Isles or just for a bunch of friends to get to the trails.

We carry spare parts, tools and a track pump so you can make any last minute repairs or adjustments before setting off.

If you are arriving by public transport we are happy to collect you from the station or airport. We'll take you pretty much wherever you want to go but click on the tabs to see some of our popular routes.

The vehicle and drivers are licenced by The Highland Council which means the vehicle undergoes strict safety inspections and the driver is vetted. We are also required to have specialist insurance.
