Chance to enjoy Autumnal wanders and stress-free strolls in Badenoch & Strathspey

 

The Highland Council is inviting people to come and join one of their Countryside Rangers on a couple of relaxing and peaceful autumnal wanders around Badenoch and Strathspey during the first week of November. 

Saranne Bish, Countryside Ranger for Badenoch & Strathspey North said “Taking time out of your day to find some breathing space and enjoy the world around you is a really great way of getting rid of that stress that we all find ourselves under.  

“During the first walk we’ll take in the wonderful world around us and practice some meditation techniques in the gorgeous Revack gardens.  The following day the guided walk will be around Kingussie where we will take time to stop and contemplate the wonder of nature and have some laughs along the way.”  

The first guided walk, on Wednesday 5 November, will be a two hour wander through Revack Estate to admire the autumnal colours and anyone wishing to come along should meet up at the dog walking car park at Revack Estate just before 10.30am.   

The following day (Thursday 6 November) the walk starts at 10am from Ardvonie car park in Kingussie and will last two and a half hours.  Anyone coming along is asked to make sure they

wear warm clothing and be prepared for inclement weather. 

The cost for the guided walks is £3 for adults and £2 for children and concessions.  All children must be accompanied by a responsible adult. For any further information please contact the Countryside Ranger service on  01479 873 914.  

The aim of the Highland Council Countryside Rangers is to promote public enjoyment and appreciation of the countryside and to conserve wildlife.
