Glentress

Tweed Valley, Scotland

About the riding

Glentress is a flagship 7stanes destination with graded riding from first pedals to expert-level trail. Green routes and a dedicated skills area build confidence; the flowing blue route suits progressing riders; the red route adds sustained climbing, roots, rocks, jumps and fast descents; and the black route is long, steep and committing. Newer bike-park-style descents sit alongside classic natural-feeling singletrack. The Gateway area provides parking, toilets, café, bike hire and a shop, making Glentress one of the strongest UK bases for a mixed-ability MTB or eMTB weekend.
