The National Cycle Network from Oban to Campbeltown offers adventurous cyclists the chance to explore Lorn, Knapdale and the spectacular Kintyre peninsula. Along the way, there are fantastic views of the islands of Jura and Arran, with pretty harbours, castles, abbeys and ancient stones to explore. An extensive network of forest trails provides further cycling opportunities in the area.
The route can be reached by train at Oban and Taynuilt, and the network of ferries that run to and from Kintyre offers opportunities for creating your own island-hopping tours. Ferry services are now available from Campbeltown to Troon (Ayrshire) and to Ballycastle (Northern Ireland). For more information about ferry services to and from Kintyre visit the Kintyre Express and Caledonia Macbrayne websites.
