5 miles
Grade:
Easy
Start:
Spey Bay, by the Wildlife Centre

The path arrives in Fochabers by coming under the A96 and along to the information board near the cricket pitch.
Circular options:
There is a circular option within Warren Wood, using the forest road and the riverside track, otherwise no.

All abilities?
No barriers, but a tricky section on top of the river embankment at the Birks where the track is squeezed between road and river. Can be by-passed by a short section on the B9104 - take care!
