A circular route running to the north of Glentrool Visitor Centre on forest roads, and returning on tranquil, rural roads.
There are some small hills but no big climbs, and surfaces are either on good quality forest roads or public roads, therefore, making this route a fantastic family-friendly cycle.
The 8 mile Palgowan cycle route can be started from Glentrool Visitor Centre in Galloway Forest Park. Newton Stewart is the nearest town or village.
From Newton Stewart take A714 signposted to Girvan for eight miles. Take right turn at Bargrennan signposted Galloway Forest Park. Take next right turn just past Glentrool village signpost to Glentrool Visitor Centre.
