4K City Walks: Cullen, Scotland Virtual Walk on Moray Firth

Описание: 4K City Walks: Cullen, Scotland Virtual Treadmill Walking Tour on Moray Firth
We made it to Scotland and we are bringing you along on a virtual walk. We spent the night in Edinburgh and headed north to the Moray coast. There are lots of outdoor things to do in Moray which is a county on the Moray Firth or bay. We are staying in Cullen, home to Cullen Skink which is actually just a chowder made with smoked haddock. It's delicious and can be purchased at the hotels and restaurants locally.
The walking here is glorious. There are local walks and trails everywhere and a town every few miles with a place to stop for a pint or a bowl of cullen skink. Cullen itself is an old fishing village with a beautiful sandy beach nestled between Portknockie and Portsoy (I love these names). It is now mainly a vacation area with lots of very efficient stone houses of one or two stories. Our Cullen Bay accommodation is a little fisherman's cottage with very low ceilings but nice and cozy down by the beach.
In this virtual treadmill walk, I start in a little park above the town to give you a nice view of the town, then down through the high street and over to the cliffs, down to the harbor and end at the little creek running beneath a 19th century railway bridge and into the sea.

From Wikipedia:
Cullen (Scottish Gaelic: Inbhir Cuilinn) is a village and former royal burgh in Moray, Scotland, on the North Sea coast 20 miles (32 km) east of Elgin. The village now has a population of 1,327. Cullen is noticeably busier in summer than winter due to the number of holiday homes owned. The organs of the wife of Robert the Bruce are said to have been buried in its old kirk (church) after her death in Cullen Castle. Robert the Bruce made an annual payment to the village in gratitude for the treatment of his wife's body and its return south for burial. A recent non-payment of this sum by the government was challenged and settled to the village's favour.

The village is noted for Cullen Skink (a traditional soup made from smoked haddock, milk, potato and onion) and its former railway bridges, two of which are now part of the national cycle network. These bridges were required, at considerable cost, due to resistance to the railway line being routed any closer to Cullen House. The most westerly (and by far the longest) viaduct is highly photogenic, and often features in tourist guides and Scottish calendars. Near Cullen is the peak Bin Hill, visible from some distance, such as from Longman Hill.
Please let us know if you have any suggestions for our time in Scotland. I'm hoping to get in Inverness and Aberdeen as well as one or two more in Edinburgh as well as several coastal walks.
Thanks!
