Route guides Pollock Park
How to get there: :Multimap
New trails in Glasgow, short but enough to get more people interested.
There are three mountain bike circuits to choose from in Pollock park all with different skill levels. The trails are well set out and pretty much link together in such a way that you could spend all day mixing/matching your riding.
Green trail
This is pretty much for beginners and kids but also provides a good warm up for the other sections.
Blue trail
This is a bit more like it, a couple of hills and a few wee jumps make for a decent blast round the trail.
Red trail
Once you have mastered the art of balancing and falling off, then this trail is Pollock park's jewel in the crown. Plenty more fast and tricky pieces of singletrack to test yourself on. There is also a couple of obstacles thrown in just to get you going.
Overview
Although not nearly long enough or technical enough for all you hardcore mtb'ers out there , Pollock park provides an excellent training ground for the kids and beginners alike. It is a good place to kill an evening just gettin out and doing what we like best.
