The Bottom Out (or lower Hobo) trail is a means to exit the glen out to the main road after riding the Mid Hobo. It's easy enough to ride without many major features if you need a fast exit but please be aware it crosses private ground and has a fence and style half-way down. Prob best just kept for a quick necessary exit...

Access Info

Park at Balquhidder Hall and access by riding up Kirkton Glen on the forestry tracks. This trail starts straight over the forestry track from where the Mid Hobo ends.
