Quad bike trekking in Edinburgh
Quad bike trekking in Edinburgh might not sound like the safest thing to do. After all, can you imagine winding down the Royal Mile on a 125cc quad bike?
Fortunately that isn't what Great Away Days have in mind. Instead, you can enjoy quad biking in the grounds round Dundas Castle, just eight miles from Edinburgh city centre.
When you book quad bike trekking in Edinburgh, you will be sure to enjoy an experience like no other. Travelling at up to 40mph in 50 acres of wooded estate, quad biking is a unique way to enjoy the unparalleled beauty of the Scottish country.
Our bikes are designed so everyone can enjoy them, no matter your riding ability. Our LANTRA qualified instructors will be on hand to ensure that your quad biking in our Edinburgh location is safe and exhilarating.
How to ride a quad bike
Whether you are a seasoned rider or have never even seen a quad bike before, Great Away Days will have you racing through the estate at Dundas Castle in no time.
Each session of quad bike trekking in Edinburgh starts with a lesson from our instructors who will show you the essentials of braking, accelerating, cornering and riding position.
You can then try the agility circuit, designed to help you get to grips with the quad bike. Once you have completed the circuit, it's time for the real quad bike trekking.
Our Edinburgh location includes woodland, rivers and acres of land. You get to experience everything on your ATV.
Getting to Dundas Castle
As just reading about quad bike trekking in Edinburgh gets the adrenalin flowing, imagine what the thrill is like once you're actually astride your ATV.
Fortunately, getting here couldn't be easier.
When driving from Edinburgh city centre, take the A90 to Craigiehall, and travel on to Dalmeny. From there, it is just two miles west to the grounds of historic Dundas Castle.
If you prefer public transport, the X43 leaves regularly from Waterloo Place. Once you get off the bus, it is a pleasant walk from Bo'ness Road in South Queensferry to the Castle.
Once you are there, the fun can really begin, as you enjoy unrivalled quad bike trekking in Edinburgh.
