OUTDOOR ACCESS EVENT

Renowned Scottish mountaineer and author Jamie Andrew is the guest speaker at next month’s Cairngorms Local Outdoor Access Forum annual event, which takes place in the Nethy Bridge Village Hall on Sunday 30th September. Mr Andrew is renowned for having completed a number of ascents around the world. He has also written an autobiography, Life and Limb, which tells of his courageous rehabilitation after he had his hands and feet amputated following an accident in the French Alps. The day is organised by the CNPA and is an opportunity for the public to meet with Cairngorms Local Outdoor Access Forum members and other experts to discuss outdoor access in the Park. A series of outdoor workshops will also take place including:

  • Canoeing and angling issues
  • Establishing community path networks
  • Managing access on farms
  • People and dogs in the countryside
  • Wildlife and access
  • Organising outdoor events
The free event is open to all but booking is required. Please contact the CNPA on tel: 01479 873535, email: outdooraccess@cairngorms.co.uk or log on to the Annual Event page for further details.
