Come along for a great introduction to the area, activities for children, maps and much more.  Discover what’s special about Nethy Bridge and Abernethy before going out to explore it for yourself.

The Centre has plenty of parking nearby and is accessible for wheelchair users by a ramp.  There are disabled-accessible toilet facilities provided at the Community Centre.

Our newly refurbished Visitor Centre was opened in 2015 in part of the Nethy Bridge Commnity Centre.  It has been awarded 3* Visitor Attraction status by Visit Scotland.

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.
