3. Drumlanrig Castle, Scotland
Best for: Olde worlde charm and proper old-school trails.
Not only is Drumlanrig a castle of spectacular beauty, but it’s also home to trail-builder Rik Allsop who has weaved some incredible, natural trails through the estate’s unspoiled parkland. This is old-school root and forest riding at its best. Oh and it’s also where the bicycle was first invented too, with a museum should you wish to pay homage.
