Cycling:
Cycling is one of the healthiest ways to experience Ayrshire.
The National Cycling Network has routes in Ayrshire, passing through some of the most scenic countryside, and making use of off the road tracks and waterside paths wherever possible, and includes some areas of outstanding natural beauty .A new bridge over the River Doon at Doonfoot provides easy access to the southern seafront and Greenan Castle.

From Largs, take the 10-minute ferry trip to the Isle of Cumbrae. The island is only four miles long and two miles wide, making the easiest and most fun way to get about, by bicycle. Take your own or hire one in Millport, pick a direction and cycle your cares away.
Ayrshire shares the Clyde Muirshiel Regional Park and the Galloway Forest Park with neighbouring counties, and both provide a beautiful setting for a walking break or cycling holiday.
Since 2002 Drumlanrig has played host to the National Points Series and Scottish Cross Country Mountain Bike Championships. A Mountain Bike Trail was constructed for these events and is now way-marked for everyone to enjoy. The course is constantly evolving with new sections of single track being added to extend the overall distance and add to user enjoyment. Drumlanrig Web Site
