Kingussie Train Station
Kingusse Station lies in the heart of Badenoch, the historical district of the Cairngorms, and in its capital, the small but busy village of Kingussie. With its name deriving from Gaelic and meaning ‘Head of the pine wood’, the train-line along this stretch offers charming scenery within the national park. In the village itself, those arriving by train can enjoy the myriad of sports available, including cycling, skiing, golf, fishing, water-sports and, of course, walking. The village itself is famous for its Shinty team (a Scottish sport similar to hockey but with more contact) and also boasts the community run Iona Art Gallery which is worth a visit. Nature lovers can also delight themselves at the RSPB nature reserve while those looking to simply enjoy the local surroundings can find a variety of cafes, restaurants, hotels and guesthouses on offer.
