The refurbishment of the Centre was led by Explore Abernethy and funded by Cairngorms National Park Authority and Scottish Natural Heritage with support from RSPB.
The centre provides:
- Visitor Information and orientation (for both the local and wider area) including information on the Explore Abernethy path network, Dell Woods National Nature Reserve and Cairngorms National Park
- Exhibits / displays
- Hands on children’s activities
- Historical information and artefacts
- Walks packs and trail maps for sale.
- Audiovisual display
