Waterfalls & Fairy Glens E-Bike Tour
Waterfalls & Fairy Glens

What they are saying…
If you’re thinking about booking an e-bike tour with Lochs, Bens and Glens – DO IT! I did the Waterfalls and Fairy Glens tour today and it was absolutely brilliant.
The route was stunning – waterfalls, forest trails, peaceful lochs and little hidden glens you wouldn’t easily find on your own. The e-bike makes it really enjoyable, especially on the hills, so you can just focus on the scenery.
Fiona and Lance were great hosts – friendly, welcoming and very well organised. The whole experience felt smooth, safe and easy from start to finish.
I drove over from Edinburgh and found the starting point really easy to get to in a couple of hours. I took the Western Ferries from Gourock (which made it feel like a little holiday!). The ferries run every 20 minutes across to Dunoon. Once you’re over, the tour starting point is 5 minutes from the ferry terminal so it’s pretty simple!
Highly recommend!
