Dorenell Community Links Paths Project

This paths project aims to link the areas of Dufftown, Glenrinnes, the Cabrach and Glenlivet with a network of sustainable, fit for purpose paths.

The project came out of a identified need in the Dorenell Community Action Plan to improve walking and cycling paths. Through funding from the EDF Renewables Dorenell Wind Farm Community Benefit Fund, TGDT, along with partner organisations commissioned a feasibility study and formed a steering group with representatives from the communities.

In 2024 TGDT commissioned the Outdoor Access Trust for Scotland (OATS) to oversee the funding, agreements and constructions of these paths. Some routes on further investigation were unfortunately found not to have the full support of land owners. However we have made significant progress on the paths from Dufftown to Glenrinnes.
