adventure

For the more adventurous in spirit, great challenges and more hard knuckle activities await you all around - from exciting watersports and canoeing - to challenging hikes and climbs. Enjoy great 4 x 4 driving, clay pigeon shooting or Mini Highland Games at Rothiemurchus Estate.

For the whitewater kayaker there is some of the finest water in Scotland - rivers such as the Findhorn, and numerous tributaries of the Spey, offer sections of whitewater up to Grade 5, Badenoch and Strathspey can provide an excellent base from which to explore further afield to rivers such as the Roy, Spean, Coe, Blackwater and many more.

Highland Wildlife Park

Experience Scottish wildlife past and present in the spectacular setting of the Highland Wildlife Park.

See the amazing variety of animals found in present day Scotland, then step back in time and meet the animals that our ancestors must have known, hundreds, even thousands of years ago. Drive around the Main Reserve in your own car and then investigate the walk-round area by foot.

The Highland Wildlife Park was opened in 1972 and is run by the Royal Zoological Society of Scotland.
