River Spey - Newtonmore to Aviemore

We have not paddled the Newtonmore to Kingussie section for ages and it really is a lovely section. We left the van at the Bridge Inn, biked home then trolleyed the canoes to the Spey. We usually put on at the Newtonmore Bridge but decided to check out a point just below this at the end of a footpath. It was fine. A perfect day for being on the water, lots of birdlife, even cattle were to be found with their feet in the water.
