Zwift\u2019s new Scotland virtual world takes in craggy climbs, loch loops and city centre circuits.<\/p>\n

Based on Glasgow and the Scottish countryside, the five new courses measure a total of 58.8km.<\/p>\n

Zwift says the new routes pass virtual castles, fens, lochs, beinns (Gaelic for mountains), sgurrs (rocky peaks) and Glaswegian cityscapes.<\/p>\n

Scotland is the third Zwift<\/a> world based on a 2023 UCI Road World Championships course.<\/p>\n

Glasgow will host the 2023 edition, following Richmond and Yorkshire<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The launch also sees Zwift become the second indoor cycling app<\/a> to have virtual Scottish roads. Wahoo X announced the Dunoon Crossover gravel route<\/a> last year.<\/p>\n

The Scotland world will initially be available only for Zwift racing <\/a>and events, with the first chance being Stage 8 of the Tour de Zwift <\/a>from 3-12 February.<\/p>\n

Ride Scotland and Race Scotland will give Zwifters another opportunity to sample the new world from 6 February to 7 March. The February ZRacing series will also be contested on the Scottish courses. Taking part in either will unlock the Zwift Tartan cycling kit.<\/p>\n

You\u2019ll be able to take part in free rides and Zwift group rides<\/a> in early March.<\/p>\n
