Speyside Way for Cyclists: Part 2 Aviemore to Aberlour

A Hebridean Way circuit #2

A Hebridean Way circuit #1
North on the Heb Way walkers route. This gives great access to the dunes & beaches not seen on the cyclists route. Turned around at Askernish golf course and returned on the Heb Way cyclists route.
