Ballindalloch Castle

Speyside Way Self-guided Walking Holiday

Set off into the Scottish whiskey heartland, following the river Spey through captivating Cairngorms scenery, visiting some of the most famous and celebrated whiskey producers in the world.

Here at Celtic Trails we're all about taking care of all the details involved in completing a long-distance walk, so our walkers can set off and simply enjoy the walking experience without worrying about the logistics.

We hand-pick high standard, characterful accommodation, transfer luggage from one stay to the next and provide you with comprehensive route guides & maps, as well as 24/7 assistance.

Whiskey is an integral part of the national identity, and on this walk you'll see how whiskey production has its roots in the natural environment of the Scottish Cairgorms. Less obvious, but just as memorable as the fine whiskey itself is the breathtakingly beautiful forests and hillside, the ornate Ballindalloch castle and the chaming towns of Craigellachie, Aviemore and Ballindalloch.
