4-Day MTB Trip | The Best of Dumfries & Galloway
Advertisement
Discover the Extraordinary Variety of Scotland’s South West 🏴
Join Marmalade MTB for a brand-new four-day guided adventure for 2026. While the Highlands offer remote peaks and the Tweed Valley focuses on enduro flow, Dumfries and Galloway provides a unique blend: world-class 7stanes singletrack combined with stunning coastal vistas and wild, cross-country exploration.
Taking in the views above the Solway coast—one of the many rewards for the climbs on this trip.
Based at a single, award-winning hotel in the charming Gatehouse of Fleet, this trip offers the perfect balance of thrilling riding and a relaxed, sociable atmosphere.
🔸️ The Experience:
Curated by our local specialist, Liz Peacock, this itinerary showcases the region's diverse 'trail gold'. We explore the famous granite slabs of Dalbeattie, the flowing berms of Mabie, and the historic trails of Ae Forest. We also venture deep into the Galloway Forest Park—a Dark Sky Park—for big-country hill tracks that link deep forests to the spectacular Solway coast.
🔹️ Professional Support:
The trip is led by Liz Peacock, a British Cycling Level 3 Leader and Dumfries local. With an intimate knowledge of the region, Liz ensures you experience the very best lines and hidden gems, all while providing personalised coaching and support to match the group's pace.
🔸️ Logistics & Accommodation:
We have selected the award-winning Ship Inn hotel as our base. Geared specifically for cyclists, it offers a high level of comfort and convenience.
4 nights’ bed and breakfast at the Ship Inn, Gatehouse of Fleet.
Secure bike storage, drying room, and maintenance facilities on-site.
Excellent locally inspired food for our evening socialising.
🔹️ Is this for me?:
This trip is designed for experienced intermediate riders who enjoy a mix of technical trail-centre features and natural XC riding. You should be comfortable on red-graded trails (with occasional black sections) and have the fitness for 4–6 hours in the saddle over four consecutive days. E-bikes are very much welcome.
📅 Dates: 13 – 17 August 2026
