Cycling the Trossachs and Callander
Mountain biking and cycling in The Trossachs is by far the best way of seeing the area. Apart from main road cycling, which is not much fun, there is a variety of cycle routes here to satisfy most tastes. For starters, there is the recently completed cycleway formed by the track bed of the old Dunblane to Oban railway, now complete from Callander to Glen Dochart. There are gentle forest routes and arduous mountain tracks. See the 'cycling' page for more details.

Fishing the Trossachs near Callander
Fishing is not one of my great interests although I used to to a bit of trout fishing as a teenager. That said, I do know enough about the sport to tell you that with such a variety of lochs and rivers in the area, most anglers will find some very rewarding waters around the Trossachs. See the 'fishing' page for information.
