in planning » South West Scotland

Planning a trip up to SW Scotland via the Lakes and North Pennines later this spring or early Summer. Has anyone done the South West 300 in Dumfries and Galloway? Thoughts? Have been to Galloway Forest Park a couple of times so planning to give that a miss and stick mainly to the coast.

There are some brilliant riding roads up around there. Personally, I would say, base yourself at the Buccleuch Arms Hotel in Moffat and get Dave (the owner) to recommend the best route based on the days weather.

I haven't done much of the coast but the Electric Brae is a fun stopping point.
