James Davidson and the Wildcat Trail he designed
James Davidson, a founder member and former President of the Clan Davidson Association, has designed a 10KM (6.2 mile)walking trail in and around Newtonmore. This Wildcat Trail is way marked and takes the walker along beautiful riverside, moorland and forest paths with superb views. Newtonmore is on the A9, so if you are in the Highlands, why not stop off and explore the area, which has close links with Davidson roots and also with other clans such as Clan Chattan.For more information, see "Useful Links"
