Aviemore nestles in the broad expanse of the Strath of the mighty River Spey, between the stunning beauty of the mountains in the Cairngorm massif and the haunting magic of the Monadhliath mountains - both with their caps of spring snow. Crystal rivers and lochs sparkle from the shadow of the Caledonian Pine Forests while the moors and peat hags cast their own special spells.

Aviemore is holding their sixth Aviemore Walking Festival which will take place from 9th to 16th May 2009.

The events take place within the beautiful scenery of the Cairngorms National Park.

The programme offers great variety from short leisurely strolls through forests and along river and loch banks to more strenuous hill walks to the mountains over 4,000 feet high. These include Cairngorm, Ben Macdui, Braeriach and also many of the local munros.

A Scottish Burn in the Cairngorms National Park near Aviemore.

The burns are running well at this time of year, still a bit of snow melt coming off the higher mountains. A great time of year to be out in the hills of Scotland.

Aviemore Cairngorm Mountain the sixth Highest Mountain in Scotland a good family climb

Aviemore Cairngorm Mountain the sixth Highest Mountain in Scotland a good family climb.

When the weather is suitable, Cairngorm Mountain makes a great family day out and a relatively easy climb, in good weather you have the security of the developed ski area and the possibility of refreshment in the Ptarmigan at the top of the Funicular Railway to celebrate success.
Combining this on a circuit of first climbing Ben Macdui, the second highest mountain in Scotland, makes it a harder 7-8 hour day and well worth that celebratory drink at the Ptarmigan.
