Speyside Malt Whisky Trail - Discover Scotland's world-famous whisky distilleries.
The Speyside Malt Whisky Trail is the only trail of its kind in the world - a scenic 99km route winding through the heart of rural Speyside, famed for its concentration of malt whisky distilleries. Named the ultimate whisky pilgrimage, it includes seven world-class working distilleries, a historic cooperage, and one preserved distillery, offering a truly immersive Scottish whisky experience.
Begin your journey around Rothes (postcode AB38 7BS) and travel through locations like Glenlivet and Forres as a starting or ending point. Visit iconic distilleries such as
Glenfiddich, Cardhu, and Glen Moray, and don't miss the Speyside Cooperage in Craigellachie - the only cooperage in Britain still open to visitors, where you can see cask-making from start to finish. The trail also makes a perfect loop for road trips or walking routes through Speyside's rolling countryside.
Explore more of Speyside's cultural heritage and natural beauty - from distilleries and cooperages to historic villages and scenic riverside walks.
