The walk to An Lochan Uaine is a great walk in Aviemore for families and for young kids. A beautiful and magical place, without much effort getting there!
Location
The Kelpies & Helix Park
This is one of my favourite places for a walk and a play. It’s outdoors, it’s free, and the Kelpies themselves are just beautiful. The playpark is fantastic and it’s a totally wheel friendly place.
Machrie Moor
This is one of my favourite walks on Arran for families, and not too strenuous for anyone. The Machrie Moor standing stones are beautiful and impressive and honestly, a little bit magical. Highly recommend.
Conic Hill
Conic Hill has truly beautiful views overlooking Loch Lomond. It is tricky for little legs towards the top with the loose stones, but it’s a great few hours out and the views make it well worth the trip.
The Wallace Monument
We love visiting the Wallace Monument. The kids had a great time climbing the monument and playing on each floor. It’s surprisingly child friendly, and that view from the top is totally worth the climb. The walk up the hill is lovely too.
St Andrews Castle
We visited St Andrews Castle during our wee trip to Fife back in March. It has a really interesting history and the kids loved exploring all the different parts of the castle. A fun few hours!

Landmark Forest Adventure Park
If you are in Aviemore with kids, Landmark Forest Adventure Park is absolutely a must do. It is one of our favourite places we’ve visited and whether it’s summer or winter, no matter what the weather, it’s such a fun day out.
