Cathkin Braes Mountain Bike Trails
Cathkin Braes Mountain Bike Trails in Glasgow City’s South
Side, will serve as the venue for the Mountain Biking competitions.
Glasgow’s first international standard mountain biking course will
be constructed in ideal terrain overlooking the city just 15
minutes south of the Athletes' Village, from an initial layout
developed in 2009.
Owned by Glasgow City Council and South Lanakshire Council, the
course will be a legacy that will not only provide a venue capable
of staging future international events, but also a facility that
will benefit the communities of Glasgow and surrounding areas in a
sport that is rapidly growing in popularity.
Cathkin Braes Mountain Bike Trails' hills, wooded terrain
and open spaces with a spectacular panorama will provide
spectators with a wonderful setting for exciting competition amidst
beautiful natural scenery.
