One of the finest long distance walks, the Speyside Way, passes right through the platform of Cromdale Station. To the west are excellent walks in the Anagach Woods and to the east is the hill of Tom-an-Aird.
The station also provides an excellent starting point for the Cromdale Hills situated to the south and offering several miles of fine walks including the site of the Battle of Cromdale and the Coronation and Jubilee Cairns.
The Dava Way starts at Grantown-on-Spey and passes over the bleak and mystical Dava Moor and a wonderful stone viaduct to Forres.
