Wolf, Whisky & Mountains 200

Start:         Nairn County Football Ground

Date:          Sunday 7 April 2024

Time :         08:00

Start in Highland Region but spend much of the day riding on lanes & quiet roads in Moray. The route south from Nairn takes you over mainly quiet country lanes with the trend being uphill, albeit gently for the mostpart, until you reach the Lair of The Wolf (of Badenoch) at Lochindorb where roadside refreshments will be had.

Now for a gentle descent to the coast at Findhorn and grab a brew & cake at The Captain’s Table Cafe before heading back inland over to Speyside and The Glenlivet estate to Tomintoul and the Fire Station Cafe. Don’t worry the route doesn’t go over The Lecht but turning north the Bridge of Brown (pronounced Brig O’ Broon) poses a serious enough challenge at this stage of an early season 200. Cross back into Highland Region to the final chance for sustenance at Grantown on Spey before a long downhill trending last 30k to Nairn where some food & drink will be on offer at the football ground. All this for a fiver – where else could you get value for money on this scale 😉!!
