Overview

Start the walk from the car park in Craigellachie.   We follow the Speyside Way west along the Spey to Aberlour.  We arrive at Aberlour old station house and pause for tea!  The walk then heads south through the village and up on a quiet country road towards Conval wood.  Some beautiful views back over the glen to Macallans Distillery!  After 2km we join forestry track for the next few kms.  Once clear of Conval wood, stunning views across Dufftown appear.  We descent to the old railway station at Dufftown and join the old railway track back to Craigellachie.
