Aviemore and the Cairngorms
Learn to windsurf or dinghy-sail, take a canoe on the Spey, go pony-trekking (the sport was invented here), shoot clays, fish, golf – or go walking. There’s a huge choice in the Cairngorms National Park.
 
Golf
This valley of the River Spey has some of the best heathland golf in Britain. Golfers who have discovered the Cairngorms came back time and time again.
