To get from Carrbridge station into the village proper it’s just a short walk along Station Road. Except Rudy chose a nicer riverside walk and then returned by the forest woods.
Scenic shortcuts that take a little longer is what we’re all about!
A Riverside Walk along the Dulnain
The River Dulnain flows from the Monadhliath Mountains to the River Spey through a mostly unpopulated area – Carrbridge is the largest village on it’s route. This riverside walk is on the north bank and starts with a view of the railway viaduct then across a wee suspension footbridge.
The walk is only 1.5km (1 mile) from station to village square and is well looked after along a nice peaceful stretch of the river.
The Old Packhorse Bridge
The packhorse bridge in Carrbridge was built in 1717 and is now the oldest surviving stone bridge in the Highlands. It was seriously damaged by a flood in 1829 and long unused other than as a wonderful picture postcard spot.
Carrbridge Woodland Walk
Situated between the railway and the Landmark Forest Adventure Park are Ellan Wood and Glencharnoch Wood. There’s a good network of criss-crossing paths to explore with several signpost maps to keep you from getting lost.
