A small Lochan on Dava Moor near Grantown on Spey overlooking the Cairngorms National Park Scotland SCO 5519
The Dava Way is a 23 mile trail across the ancient Celtic province of Morayshire between the historic towns of Forres and Grantown-on-Spey. The route links Strathspey and the Cairngorms National Park with the Moray Coast in North East Scotland. Almost all of the route follows the old Hisghland Railway line and is off road and safe from traffic. It passes through a pleasing mix of farmland, woodland and moorland as you climb from the Spey Valley to cross Dava Moor before decending to the Moray Firth. As you cross the moor on a clear day you are rewarded with views to the south over the shire counties of Nairn, Inverness, Moray, Ross & Cromarty, and Sutherland, whilst to the south the Cromdale Hills and Cairngorm Mountains dominate the skyline. The path is directed away from the disused railway route at four locations. Three diversions are to avoid private property, and the other is to avoid a flooded section
