Packhorse Bridge (also known as Coffin Bridge), is an iconic bridge in the village of Carrbridge. Built in 1717 to allow funeral processions to reach Duthil Church by crossing the River Dulnain, it is now a popular tourist spot.

The parapets were washed away in the 19th century, giving it a simplistic and eye-catching appearance.

It can be seen clearly here from the road bridge, which forms part of NCN 7. However, if you'd like a closer look, dismount from your bike and follow the steps around the corner to the viewing area.
