The Fiddichside Inn on outskirts of Craigellachie (Speyside Way)

Those walking the Dava Way should be aware that there are no facilities of any sort after leaving Grantown, until the town of Forres is reached at the very end of the trail. Very fit and fast walkers would be able to complete the trail in one day during the spring and summer months, when the days are long, and all but the slowest and inexperienced of cyclists should be able to cover this modest cycling distance within one day. Slower or less fit ramblers will have to carry adequate food and drink and (as wild camping is not appropriate) arrange for a vehicle to meet them at the end of the day to drive them to overnight accommodation and refreshment.

The only places of refreshment on the wilderness walks in the Prologue are at the starting points of Roybridge, Spean Bridge and Fort Augustus, and at Laggan at the end of Stages 1 and 1A. All food and drink must be carried for the duration of these walks, although there is abundant water to drink in the many burns (you may wish to treat this water with a purifying agent before drinking).
