Toegang
The Findhorn River Valley is located south of Inverness, near the village of Tomatin. From the A9 between Inverness and Aviemore, take the Tomatin exit. Head south on the NCR 7 and turn right 2km before Findhorn Bridge. Take your time, as the dead-end road is almost 15 km long and worth walking for most of its length. From the car park at the end of the road, you can walk for another 6 km.
