The Dava Way Association.
In Autumn 1996 opening the route of the abandoned railway line between Grantown-on-Spey and Forres as a cycle and walk way was voted one of the top development ideas in a survey of households in Forres and the surrounding areas. The Dava Way Association came into being in June 1997 with the aim of establishing a walking and cycling path along the route. We believe we may be the only volunteer group in Scotland (the UK) to have negotiated the opening of a new trail of this length, and to attempt to continue to upgrade and maintain it.
