Location information

Loch of Boath terrain

Thursday Aug 1

Loch of Boath is the westernmost extent of a large area of forest and moorland that extends all the way to the A939 and beyond at Coulmony. The forest is a real gem, like the best of open runnable Speyside moraine areas, It has plenty of paths for junior courses and good technical terrain for everyone else. The area links up with Clunas, used in Moray 2003, and the runnable intricate forest known as Keppernach. The assembly and car parking fields enjoy a fine view north to Nairn and the Moray Firth.

This is a good day to visit the famous Cawdor Castle while you are in the area.
