The Speyside Way 
A self-guided walking holiday through the heart of Whisky Country to the foothills of the Cairngorm Mountains
Speyside is one of the loveliest and most unspoilt parts of the British Isles. It is overlooked by some of its highest mountains and beneath them are some of Scotland's grandest pine forests. This wonderful area of Scotland is known as 'Scotland's larder', and is home to many attractive villages, castles and wildlife. Of course one of the main highlights of this area is the opportunity to visit some of the most famous whisky distilleries in Scotland, including Glenfiddich, Glenlivet and the Macallan. The Speyside Way is a long distance trail which captures the spirit of Scotland. It generally follows the River Spey running from Buckie on the Moray Firth through the heart of Malt Whisky country to Aviemore in the foothills of the Cairngorm Mountains. As you walk through splendid scenery from open coastlands and rich farmland to heather clad hills and ancient Caledonian forests, look out for the dolphins as you pass Spey Bay and pay a visit to see the ospreys at Loch Garten. |
