Day 1: Pitlochry - Rannoch Moor (34 miles)

This is a scenic and pretty flat opening day of cycling following the River Tummel, Loch Tummel and then Loch Rannoch of the same name. Loch Tummel, and in particular Queens View is one of Scotland's best loved beauty spots and the route follows the minor road on the south side of the water. From the western end of the loch, it's on to Kinloch Rannoch and west to Rannoch Moor. After starting in the busy town of Pitlochry, the day finishes a million miles away from anywhere that could be described as busy.

Accommodation: Moor of Rannoch Hotel This is an external link., Rannoch Moor

On the return journey its along the south side of the lochs, again passing through Kinloch Rannoch along the south side of Loch Rannoch.  It's a slightly longer way round, but a little more downstream than the first day.
