Aberlour Walking Group is a welcoming group, open to everybody in the community. Our aim is to combine walking with an opportunity to meet and chat with other walkers, and to introduce walkers to some new areas. Children are welcome, and so are dogs, under adult supervision. We usually stop for a quick tea/coffee enroute, so please bring a flask and wear walking boots or strong shoes. Come ready to start the walks at 9:30am. If you need more information or help with transport please contact Donald (contact details below). Please confirm with Donald that you are coming on any walk.

Starting point: Coming from west pass Fochabers Square and continue through lights to Museum (old Church) on left and Chip Shop on right. Turn right here into East Street, and continue just past play park and tennis court to park in front of Public Toilets on left, or nearby.
Route is mainly through woods. Paths generally good, but muddy and rough in places. Walk has 600ft of easy as-cent (only steep stretches). Downhill after Jean Carr’s Stone.

Sat 14th September: Cromdale–Grantown circular walk
There is no write up or photographs of this walk at the moment, but it did go ahead!
Starting point: Take A95 to Cromdale. Pass through traffic lights then look for right turn signposted to Church. Follow this to Church car park before Church on right – this side of bridge over Spey. We walk through Anagach Woods to the outskirts of Grantown, then back by the River Spey.
Distance: 6½ miles.
Note: Going back by Spey dogs should be kept on leads through farming land. Lovely walk with open pine woods, river views and good paths. Mainly level.
