Day 4 exploring the Clyde, this route uses forestry road and a single track to connect up Ardentinny with Lochgoilhead without going all the way to Strachur and Loch Fyne on busy roads. Its clearly a "thing" we met others doing the same in the opposite direction as well as plenty on Strava. From Dunoon we took a diversion to Pucks Glen for a walk before riding along the road to Ardentinny. There's qutie a bit of traffic on the A815 so this short section was not all that pleasant. However the A880 gets increasingly quiet past Strone and it was a lovely easy ride to Ardentinny. There we took a steep forestry road up the hill, down to shore level again then back up. We missed the turnoff to the single track section and climber further than necessary but were rewarded by a great view. On loaded touring bikes, we took the single track carefully with a bit of pushing on steep sections and hrough fallen trees. However, its a fun little ride and a great link to Lochgoilhead.
