Fri, 19 June 2026 @ 18:30 - 20:00

An evening of walking, exploration and conversation with members of the Laich of Moray Active Travel Routes.

Laich of Moray Active Travel Routes aims to complete the 2007 vision to connect the coastal communities of Burghead, Cummingston, Hopeman, Duffus, Covesea and Lossiemouth with a safe and accessible walking, wheeling and cycling route.

There’s an old road alignment between Royal Air Force Lossiemouth and Moray Golf Club which, if upgraded, would form a perfect part of this route. It would offer a path remote from the busy B9040 with minimal impact on the golf course.

Join us for a stroll along this route, uncovering historical structures and discussing the possibilities of progress.
