The Forres Footpaths Trust is dedicated to establishing a network of walks in and around Forres. Few Scottish towns can boast the same kind of beauty and history that surrounds this Royal Burgh. In order to enjoy all that is on offer, the Trust has developed a number of walks around the town. Choose to look at the many historic artefacts still on show, marvel at the glorious floral displays or simply stroll around and get a feel for this beautiful town.

A full colour, 24 page booklet entitled "A Guide to Walking in Forres and the Surrounding Area" (Price: £1.50) are available Click here for more information. A series of FREE route guides (in PDF format) can also be downloaded from the Walks page.

Please enjoy our paths and the countryside around Forres.
