This book is
the ideal guide to much of what this beautiful and richly historical
part of Scotland has to offer.
The largest town, Forres, is an ancient royal burgh. Between it and
the next biggest town of Lossiemouth lie the coastal villages of
Findhorn, Burghead and Hopeman, connected by some of Scotland’s finest
coastal scenery and beaches.
Eastwards, beyond intact remains of second world war defences, lie
Garmouth and Fochabers, the former, many centuries ago, the main port of
Moray Here the Moray Way turns south, following a course through the
fertile Spey valley. Its many distilleries are part of the considerable
variety of interest as the route continues to the resort town of
Grantown.
A final stage northward crosses the wild openness of Dava
Moor, reaching eventually the spectacular Divie viaduct where there is a
dramatic change to gentler woodlands and pastoral landscapes as the
trail leads back to Forres.
