Dog Friendly Scottish Walks - Cairngorm National Park
If you're in and around the Aviemore area of the Cairngorms National Park in Scotland then you'll be spoilt for choice when it comes to great places to walk your dogs.
Forestry Commission Scotland look after huge areas of forest and woodland including Glenmore near Aviemore and Inshriach near Kingussie and many of these trails are great dog walking territory and offer spectacular scenery for the humans tagging along on the walks as well!
Plus 2 Dogs & Dog Friendly Scotland particularly enjoyed a walk around Loch Morlich near to the Glenmore Caravan & Camping site (the campsite is bookable via Forest Holiday and the site does welcome dogs) - the beach separating campsite, forest and loch (see photo above) is stunning! We also enjoyed the Crag walk and a meander around the Lochans at Inshriach Forest.

The Forestry Commission in Scotland oversees a huge number of forests, the majority of which are great for dog walking – from short all-access trails with walks of less than an hour, through to forest trails or lochside walks of a few hours, or, if you’re feeling really energetic then you may fancy a full day of hiking for you and your canine companions. Many walks are way-marked, making the routes easy to follow.
