Map of NE Scotland. Kinloss and Findhorn are on the National Cycle Network Route 1 which goes all the way from Dover up the east coast of the country to John o'Groats, the Orkneys and the Shetlands.

The National Cycle Network currently provides 6,000 miles of cycling and walking routes throughout the UK. By 2005 this will be extended to 10,000 miles. About one-third of the Network is on paths which are free from motor traffic, with the rest using quiet lanes or traffic-calmed roads in towns or cities. Traffic-free sections provide a suitable place for family cycling.children and new cyclists to practice their skills. Many are also used by walkers, people with disabilities and, in some cases, horse riders. Whilst the National Cycle Network is ideal for family rides or longer cycling holidays, many people simply choose the routes as an alternative to using the car for local trips to work, school or the shops. The Network is coordinated by the charity Sustrans and involves hundreds of organisations. These include local authorities, businesses, landowners and environmental bodies. The project is funded by grants from national and local map of scotland.government and charitable trusts, foundations, companies and the National Lottery funding bodies. The first 5,000 miles were also supported by Millennium Commission funds. One of the most vital sources of funding, however, comes from the voluntary donations offered by Sustrans Supporters.

The National Cycle Network is a safe way to see Scotland. Many of the routes are free from cars and other traffic Marked Green on the map opposite. In addition the National Cycle Network links up to the national railway network. Forres, the local railway station to Kinloss and Findhorn provides access to the National Cycle Network - Route 1.
