Join Hillgoers for a classic bike-and-hike adventure to Beinn a’ Bhùird and Ben Avon — two of the most remote and impressive Munros in the Cairngorms. Using bikes from Keiloch to access the long track through Gleann an t-Slugain, we cut hours off the day and gain efficient access to some of the most dramatic high plateaus in Scotland.
