Moffat Triskelion – South East Loop

Cycling

The Moffat Triskelion is 250km of stunning road cycling broken into three loops that start and finish in Moffat, in the South of Scotland.

The Southeast loop in the Moffat triskelion is a 75km loop that takes in some fascinating and unusual history:
- Stop off at the ancient Wamphray Parish Church
- Take a short diversion north of Eskdalemuir to visit Samye Ling, the Tibetan Buddhist Centre.
- Stop off at any of the five prehistoric sites just off the route south of Eakdalemuir, including the superb Castle O'er Iron Age hill fort.
- Enjoy the miles of quiet single track road and wide open hill country between King's Pool and Corrie Common
- Don't forget to take a break at the Eskdalemuir Hub for delicious home cooking and refreshments!

Note that this route can be shortened to 40km if you are able to start and finish at Boreland.
