Hi all

I was wondering if anyone knows the exact location/routes of the Santa Cruz SOLO launch video from a few years ago? From what I’ve read it seems to be around Torridon/Achnasellach?

I’m off hiking for a week in Nov in the Highlands and was wondering if I could retrace some of the paths and trails from the video. I’ve always found it quite magical.

Thanks all
Joe

Pretty sure it's mostly on the torridon lollipop. That bothy is on the ride up the valley from Coulags. The flat slabs are down to Annat, the twisty bits/slabs are on the descent back to the A890.

I love that video, btw. I always think of it when I'm out in the wilds, sing the song in my head.

Yep. Torridon. 

If you look at the map these are 2 obvious paths from coulgas to annat. They make up the lollipop. 

Best riding in the UK.
