The Tayside Trail Association (TTA) was formed in 2020 by a collection of local riders searching for a way to formalise communication with land managers, the local riding community, and trail builders for the betterment of the Tayside trail network.
Due to the geography and size of the area, the TTA was subdivided into individual 'Trail Crews' covering Dunkeld, Perth (Kinnoull Hill and Deuchny Bike Park), Pitmedden, and Ballo. This allows pre-existing groups to continue the work that has put the area on the map, with improved guidance, education, and support from the TTA.
The standardisation of best practice throughout our region makes for a better rider experience, but also makes the communication easier when working with multiple landowners in the area, all of whom have different approaches to trail management.
