Description

Accessed right from the heart of Aviemore, Craigellachie is a nature reserve with several lochans, beautiful birchwoods, steep crags. The walk gives a chance to get away from the hustle and bustle of the town and to experience a glimpse of the wild Cairngorms.

The crags are home to peregrine falcons.
