Findhorn - Day 1

We left the house in the morning and drove north up the A9, getting diesel at Tesco in Perth on the way. We carried on to Carrbridge where we stopped for a short walk and lunch. Carrbridge has a famous old bridge called the Packhorse Bridge.

We carried on up to Findhorn, where we'd booked in for one night in the CAMpRA aire at the marina. It's £15 per night without electric, and has great a view overlooking Findhorn Bay. It has toilets and shower available.


We went for a walk down the seafront, and called in to the office of the water taxi. We had planned to take the taxi across the bay to Culbin forest tomorrow. However the lady in the office said they couldn't guarantee a return trip, as there was strong wind forecast. We agreed to confirm by phone in the morning.

We then went for a walk across the peninsula then up to the beach for Oscar to get a run about. The weather was very clear but quite cold.


We walked back to the van, then later had pizza for dinner.
