Quad Bike Treks...
Highland Venture provides a choice of two very different off road quad
bike treks in the very beautiful heart of Strathspey.
Known as Monarch Country because of its setting for the flagship BBC
Sunday night drama series, Monarch of the Glen, the strath is steeped
in the history and culture of the Scottish Highlands.
The route of each trek has been carefully selected to provide varied
terrain and to take in spectacular views of the magnificent mountain
and moorland scenery oif the Cairngorms National Park.
Our treks are led by fully experienced guides who are happy to stop
at particularly impressive view points and indicate areas of special
interest en route.
ALVIE & DALRADDY ESTATE....
This superb quad bike trek follows a cross country off road trail which
leads across open moorland and along forestry tracks down to the banks
of one of Scotland's most famous salmon fishing rivers, the majestic
River Spey.
There are stunning views of the surrounding mountain and moorland scenery
with the likelihood of seeing deer, buzzards and other wildlife in their
natural habitat.
All treks on this traditional Highland Estate start from the Dalraddy
Holiday Park just south of Aviemore.
ROTHIEMURCHUS ESTATE....
Head off on one of our easy to ride quad bikes and take in the breathtaking
scenery as you follow the network of tracks and trails on this famous
20,000 acre Highland Estate owned and managed by the present Laird, Mr
John Grant.
Trek through the Caledonian pine woodland and plantations and out across
the heather moorland which in late summer provides a spectacular carpet
of purple.
Look out for the estate's herd of long horned Highland Cows with chances
of seeing wild deer and other local wildlife.
All treks start from the Rothiemurchus Estate Visitor Centre located
