Places to see in ( Grantown on Spey - UK )
Grantown-on-Spey is a town in the Highland Council Area, historically within the county of Moray. Grantown on Spey was founded in 1765 as a planned settlement on a low plateau at Freuchie beside the river Spey at the northern edge of the Cairngorm mountains, about 20 miles south east of Inverness (35 miles by road). Originally called simply Grantown after Sir James Grant, on Spey was added by the burgh council in 1898.
There are no rail services to Grantown. The closest main line stations are Aviemore and Carrbridge from which trains travel North/South between Inverness and the central belt. There is also a station at Forres from which trains run between Inverness and Aberdeen. The Strathspey Railway is a heritage railway which currently runs between Aviemore and Broomhill (nr Nethy Bridge) via Boat of Garten. There is a proposal to extend this railway to Grantown.
The town is twinned with Notre-Dame-de-Monts in the Vendée, Pays-de-la-Loire, France, and Grant Town, West Virginia in the United States. Since 2011, Grantown-on-Spey has been home to Shinty club Strathspey Camanachd. There is a small museum located in Burnfield Avenue near one of the town's three free car-parks.

Cairngorm National Park, Scotland
The Cairngorm National Park is in the North East of Scotland and easily reached from Edinburgh or Glasgow. It is a massive 452 800ha National Park with 17000 people living and working there. There are huge mountains and the interior is relatively untouched as it is cut off from the roads and routes the tourists take.
There is plenty to see and do here and below I will put some of the links to help you on your way around the National Park.
Links:
Review the national parks you have visited and if you have photos and videos, why not send them in.
