This guidebook describes two contrasting routes in north-east
Scotland: the Moray Coast Trail from Forres to Cullen, and the Dava
Way, an inland route from Grantown to Forres. The Moray Coast Trail
consists of 44 miles of beach walking, coastal paths, quiet roads
and old railway. The Dava Way extends for 23 miles inland with
vistas of mountain, moorland and farmland. We also introduce the
Moray Way, a concept combining most of the above two routes with
part of the Speyside Way to form a 95-mile circuit of considerable
beauty and historical interest. Here is all you need to plan and
enjoy your holiday on and around the Moray Firth: detailed
