There’s a great choice of routes from Eathie. You can cycle to Cromarty and along the northern shores of the Black Isle, or across the firth and the Seaboard villages if you fancy to take the Cromarty-Nigg ferry (June – October) or towards Rosemarkie beach and cafe, and along the shore to Chanonry Point one of the best places to spot dolphins.
There is also a range of options from Fortrose. The dolphins are closer to this shed. There is also a route along the old railway track to the old fishing village of Avoch.
You can use our cycle route planner or scroll down that page for downloadable cycle routes to plan your expeditions.
You could explore the villages of Fortrose and Avoch which are linked by the traffic-free path along the old railway line. If you are feeling adventurous there are the MTB trails of Learnie Red Rocks. Or simply explore the miles of quiet roads and forest tracks.
Pick up your bikes from Brownhill, Hillockhead where you can enjoy fantastic views over the Moray and Cromarty Firths and explore forest tracks and some of the other places just mentioned. or near Fortrose Leisure Centre near the historic ruined Cathedral.
