Training in Tarland

Trails, a pump track and a golf course.

Tarland had about 690 residents in 2020, and most of its training is on two wheels. Tarland Trails has two sites: Drummy Woods, the smaller original, with beginner to intermediate trails and a pump track, and Pittenderich, a larger hill site with more advanced trails and a big car park. Tarland Golf Club and Tarland Tennis Club are the other options.

Trails are more fun with someone who'll wait at the top of the climb, and a riding partner is also the person who helps when something goes wrong. Tomnaverie, a recumbent stone circle around 4,000 years old, sits just south of the village for a gentler day out.
