	Daisyroots.net - THE SPEYSIDE WAY
		Leading from the coast at Spey Bay and Buckie and covering 65 miles as it follows the majestic Spey through to Aviemore, The Speyside Way is an introduction to one of the most beautiful and interesting parts of Scotland.
		Not primarily a test of endurance, the way passes through fishing villages, arable and then livestock farms, through the heartland of the Scotch whisky industry and then into the wilder northern Cairngorms before stopping (officially) at Aviemore, with access to a wide range of summer and winter activities and sports.
		And because Speyside, more than anywhere else, is the home of the Scottish whisky industry, the book has an appendix introducing this most pleasing subject.

		The Speyside Way is one of Scotland's "Long-Distance Footpaths" and links the Cairngorms to the sea, following the route of the Spey valley.
		Somewhat ironically, given that the majority of the Speyside Way follows the path of a former railway, the "Dufftown Spur" is prevented from reaching its eponymous destination due to the presence of the preserved Keith and Dufftown Railway!
		Incidentally, the official guide to Speyside Way, as well as the maps dotted about the route, state that cyclists are not allowed on the Ballindalloch - Cromdale section, but are allowed on the Nethybridge - Aviemore section; no mention is made of the Grantown - Nethybridge section which lies in between.
