The most suitable and appropriate areas for cycling or mountain biking on the three official trails are as follows:

Speyside Way Aviemore to Boat of Garten Ballindalloch to Fochabers Do not cycle on the sections between Cromdale and Ballindalloch or on the Tomintoul Spur.* Dava Way The whole of the trail between Grantown and Forres, although in some small areas cyclists must avoid paths designated only for walkers; alternative trails suitable for cyclists and mountain bikers are signposted. Moray Coast Trail Forres to Findhorn Portgordon to Portessie Findochty to Portknockie

* Cyclists who want to cycle a modified Speyside Way from Aviemore to Buckie can do so by linking the rideable sections of the official Way with a number of public roads, most of which carry only light traffic: the B970 between Boat of Garten, Nethy Bridge and Grantown, the B9102 followed by a minor road to Cromdale, another minor road via Wester and Easter Rynaballoch to Millton and the Mains of Dalvey, the A95 (take care) and the B9137 to Ballindalloch station, the B9104 from Fochabers to Spey Bay and a minor road via Nether Dallachy to Portgordon. Cyclists starting at Tomintoul can make use of either the B9008 via Tomnavoulin or the B9136 down Glen Avon, which meets with the B9008 about 3½ miles before the latter reaches the A95 near the Bridge of Avon, and hence to Ballindalloch and the railway line heading north along the Spey valley.
