  • YOUR CASE



    In the early 1900s local dentist, Dr Phil MacAvity, led a double life - as a respected dentist but also as a successful smuggler. The treasures he collected remained hidden after he died on one of his thieving expeditions but fortunately he left a series of clues which uncover the location of his hidden booty. If you succeed you could win a cash prize. Good luck!

    Kingussie



    The name 'Kingussie' comes from the Gaelic, 'Ceann a' Ghiuthsaich' which means 'Head of the Pines', and lies on the north bank of the Spey.
    In 1799 the Duke of Gordon decided that the existing parish needed a village and the planned settlement of Kingussie was laid out.
    Today's Kingussie reflects its history being well laid out in a regular pattern and especially rich in fine stone villas with rich woodlands.

    This circular, walking treasure Trail takes you from the centre of the village up through scenic woodland, passing fine examples of Kingussie's many stone villas, before winding its way back through the village again.
    The Trail is approximately 1¾ miles long and takes about 1¾ hours. It is suitable for light pushchairs but regrettably not wheelchairs.

    WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS SAY
    We really enjoyed the Kingussie trail ; a great mix of way -finding ,cerebral puzzles and discovery of a place in a more intimate way. The fact that it gave us a purposeful walk with non outdoor people on a pouring wet day was a great asset.They are a great idea to get people engaging with both the natural and built environments.
