Great Glen Way Cycling Holidays

Cycle above lochs and through forest along the Great Glen, from Fort William to Inverness.

Cycling holidays with Contours are self-guided, so you can ride at your own pace. We offer a range of itineraries to choose from, with flexible start dates. Build your cycling group from friends and family, or opt to ride solo along this twining route through the Scottish countryside and capital.

Daily luggage transfers are included, along with 24/7 emergency support, breakfast each morning, and all the maps and guidebooks you'll need to find your way.

We offer leisure cycling holidays along the full Great Glen Way.

You'll follow canal towpath, singletrack footpath and broad gravelly forestry track through woodland and over the open hills, taking in huge views over lochs Locky, Oich and Ness. The trail is spectacularly remote in places, with plenty of opportunity to spot deer, birds of prey and perhaps even the reclusive red squirrel.

Itineraries range from 2 to 3 days in the saddle, so you can pick out the right daily mileages to match your cycling pace.

Looking to explore somewhere in particular? Add in extra nights at your favourite spots to enjoy rest days or see the sights.
