Land OwnerForestry And Land Scotland
The "Hobo - Mid" is a natural flowy trail that starts with a "tunnel" through some dense conifers, is followed by a short rocky section then continues with berms and drops through the woods. The trail has been enhanced by the local trail crew to have berms, and a few optional drops. The trail finishes at a forestry road where you can either turn left to climb back into Kirkton Glen or right down the forestry road to the village. Pretty fast and flowy and works well in dry and wet.
Access Info
Park at Balquhidder Hall or Balquhidder Kirk and access via forestry roads and the "Lost Trail" (which is no longer a single track since the forestry built a rod on its line)
