Hi Perth people,

Heading up to Perth this weekend and will be up Kinnoull Hill and the forest behind it. I know there are trails dotted about and the location of a few of them. On Youtube there is videos of jumps and natural drops. Are these still about and where do I find features like this for a play? :mrgreen:

Many thanks for any help.

Martin

Lots of natural stuff all over the shop - follow your nose.
The bike park bit is in Deuchny Wood here - http://www.streetmap.co.uk/map.srf?X=314665&Y=723425&A=Y&Z=120
Enjoy 🙂

lots more info here:

you just need to explore, but as above the jump park is on the deuchny woods side. You can also go up above the fun park for some natural stuff but its quite tricky.

Lots of trails down from the look out point on the kinoul hill side, havnt quite explored that bit too much yet and figured out how they all link up.

Thanks for the help. Don't know if we will have the time to make Comrie Croft.

Followed my nose last time and found lots of trails but I think the bike park bit my have be closed for work so we never tried going down what I now think is the entry in Deuchny Wood.

Yep - go to the very right 🙂 Unless you jump it, you wont roll it from about 3/4 from the right to the left.

Was up today. Love the natural trails of the top of the hill in deuchny woods. Bike park was good fun if a little small. Managed to clear the big doubles on the 2nd attempt. Messed on some fun stuff on Kinnoull that we have been on before, ace area for a quick play :mrgreen:

Used to stay in nurses residence at Murray Royal nigh on 20 years ago and had the odd cycle up Kinnoul Hill- might need to go for a wander about on the bike for old times sake!
