River Mashie

The River Mashie in the Scottish Highlands flows from the slopes northwest of Loch Ericht through beautiful moorland and Strathmashie Forest before joining the River Spey. It is a tranquil spot ideal for outdoor leisure activities.The area is popular for walking and hiking, with pleasant trails through pine forests offering scenic views, wildlife spotting (deer and birds) and peaceful riverside paths. Fishing is a highlight, especially for wild brown trout and, in season, salmon in the connected Spey system. Other activities include birdwatching, nature photography and picnicking in the forest. It provides a quiet, authentic Highland experience for nature lovers.
