A very enjoyable linear walk in Speyside from near Grantown-on-Spey to the village of Nethy Bridge, through a variety of environments on well-marked paths, with views to the Kincardine Ridge, Northern Cairngorms and over Strathspey. Roe deer, buzzards and capercaillie may be seen. At the start of the walk, Revack Lodge offers a restaurant and coffee shop, giftshop, toilets and a children's play area; and at the finish there is Castle Roy, a fortress dating from the early 13th Century (info' at the car park).
The route is circuitous, but has been marked out to offer a variety of environments (pinewood, birch wood, open moor and farmland) giving a variety of flora and fauna. Paths vary from Land-Rover tracks to faint (but well-marked) grassy paths. Boots are recommended and it is requested that dogs be kept on the lead. There is no public transport; there is a car park at each end.
The more active walker might like to make this part of a super circular walk by returning to Revack by Walk 2088 (a total of 15km). Walk 2088 is part of the Speyside Way. Instructions for linking to this walk are provided in the 'Additional Info' for the walk.
