From exploring the area on horse back, getting to grips with heights on a high ropes course, quad biking through forest tracks and over moors, trying to stay balanced and going forward on a segway, imagining yourself in the world of Robin Hood practicing your archery skills, going into battle (with paintballs), getting the adrenaline flowing on a clay pigeon shoot or zipping through the trees on a zip wire, orienteering your way around the countryside and fishing on the Spey and many local lochs, Aviemore really is a mecca for the active person of all ages.
