This gentle walk takes you along the banks of the River Nethy, passing through mixed deciduous woodland with an abundance of wildflowers, finches and tits. Grey herons and dippers are often seen in the water. The trail then passes on into a century-old tree nursery, once used to replenish the woods of Scots pine during the timber industries of the 19th Century. The footpath then meanders through mature pine woodland within the Dell Wood National Nature Reserve. Look out for red squirrel, roe deer and crested tit! Return to the starting point at the community centre along Culvardie Road, past beautiful cottages and gardens.
Dogs may be taken on this walk but it is not good for wheelchairs or pushchairs.
