Have fun cycling by the <strong>Moray</strong> <strong>Firth</strong>! From Meavie Point in<br />
Banff, head east along the coast on a quiet road which joins a<br />
cyclepath <strong>to</strong> Banff Links. The route leads through a caravan<br />
park/campsite, across a footbridge and on tracks round the<br />
coast <strong>to</strong> Whitehills. En route there are great sea views and the<br />
Roman built Red Well. In Whitehills, look out for the excellent fish<br />
shop by the harbour.<br />
Another route from Banff is <strong>to</strong> follow the rough tracks around<br />
Montc<strong>of</strong>fer Woods. Start or finish at Duff House – a Country<br />
House Gallery <strong>of</strong> the National Galleries <strong>of</strong> Scotland, which has<br />
works by El Greco, among other luminaries, and visiting<br />
exhibitions. A highlight <strong>of</strong> this cycle route is the picturesque<br />
Bridge <strong>of</strong> Alvah.<br />
