Cairngorm - Hill Walking
|
|
This part of Scotland is very popular with serious walkers. The 30mi/48km route from Aviemore to Braemar via Larig Ghru includes some breathtaking views. Another path - about as long - runs from Braemar to Blair Atholl, while a shorter, but still very pretty walk starts in Aviemore, crosses the Revoan pass via Loch Avon and finishes in Nethy Bridge, a popular base for skiers, anglers and golfers.
The 28mi/45km Lairig Ghru trail runs from Aviemore, through the Rothiemurchus forest up to the Pools of Dee. From there it descends to Linn of Dee and then turns east to Braemar.
