An illustrated and written description of each walk is available from the Visitor Centre (only £2 including post cards!)
Footpath updates:
Broomhill
Flooding at the Broomhill bridge end of the path is usual following heavy rain or when the Nethy & Spey are in spate.
However, its still worth a walk along the trail to see the rivers flowing fast and high!
Dippers and signs of otter are possible
Bacharn
The Alltmor footbridge is closed until further notice. To avoid the bridge, start your walk from Castle Roy car park
Castle Roy Loop
To complete both loops of this trail is not possible as the footbridge over Alltmor is not fit for purpose. Use of the bridge is at your own discretion. Please take care.
Riverside path
Storm damage in late December 2015 washed out a section of the path but it is now fully repaied and accessible for all users including motorised wheelchairs, prams, push chairs and bikes
Updates will be posted on this website, Nethy Bridge Community and RSPB Community Ranger facebook pages
