Overview

Lovely wheelchair accessible coastal trail.

Transport & Parking

You can park at the start of the walk beside the Diageo Distillery or there's parking in Burghead itself. The ground is a bit rough where you park though as I'm not sure that it's actually an official car-park or just a piece of ground that people park on. We were told to park there by residents and have never had any problems.

Access

This is an old railway line which has been converted into a coastal trail to encourage people to walk and cycle. It is wheelchair accessible up until Hopeman although the trail goes all the way to Lossiemouth. It is a lovely walk along the cliffs with lots of great views of the North Sea, lots of wildflowers and sometimes dolphins. St. Aethan's holy well is also here. The wind coming off the sea can be brutal in the colder weather so take lots of warm clothes and hand warmers!

Toilets

There were public toilets on the way at the caravan park above the walk and also in Hopeman, where there was a disabled public toilet at the harbour but I didn't visit it so I can't comment.

Anything else you wish to tell us?

I met lots of friendly walkers, there are also quite a few benches for people to sit and enjoy the view which is exhilarating ! Walkhighlands have a link with more info but it's directed at people who can walk. https://www.walkhighlands.co.uk/moray/burghead-lossiemouth.shtml
