Opis

When the Author moved upto Moray 10 years ago he had little idea about the place and has since explored it in various ways from the whiskeys, the salmon in the charasmatic rivers to the rock and sandy coast line, from the low fertile plains to the rugged mountains of the Cairngorms, by foot and bike. Plus its colourful and intriguing history from the picts, Romans, Vikings, tales of smuggling, and folk lore. The route illustrated in this book ""The Moray way,"" a circular walk of over 90 miles which takes you through all of morays historical and wonderous scenery. The second route is the ""Ben Macdui Trail."" Starting at Burghead, it is a 66 mile hike from sea to clouds on roads and rough tracks taking in the old towns of Elgin and Tomintoul until reaching the Cairngorms. Both routes come with maps and descriptions, advise as to where bikes can be used, and details of whats underfoot every step of the way.
