Wildflower Walk at RSPB Scotland Insh Marshes

Celebrate National Meadows Day with a guided walk to enjoy the beauty of summer wildflowers on Insh Marshes!

Walk the Invertromie Trail and be introduced to lots of different flowers, from the common, such as Bird’s-foot Trefoil, Bedstraws and Stitchworts, to the uncommon, such as Rockrose and Petty Whin. The highlight of the walk will be gorgeous Tromie orchid meadow where we will hope to see five species of orchid, including Heath Fragrant-orchid and Small White Orchid.

Feel free to bring a packed lunch with you as we will be having a lunch stop. There are no facilities to buy food on site - the nearest shops and cafes are in Kingussie.

Some areas may be rough underfoot. This 5k/3mile route is unfortunately not suitable for wheelchairs or buggies, and we recommend sturdy footwear.
