A natural settlement
established at the river crossing in beautiful Strathspey.
Although the village is quite small there are a host of services
for accommodation through to dining. The river Nethy of course
is a main feature of the area as well as Abernethy forest.
Abernethy forest is an
ancient pine forest and is full of wildlife, tracks and
interesting areas to explore.
If you love natural
woodland this is a great place to enjoy with an extensive
network of well marked woodland paths and tracks. Also there is
a popular riverside path to enjoy with wildlife never being far
away.

Red
squirrels are only one of the many wildlife meetings you might
enjoy. There are also Pine Martins, Crested Tits, and
Capercaillie.
Castle Roy is a
magnificent 13th century fortress ruin. The entry to this historic
building is free and a great visit for those interested in castles
and of course all children.
