With plenty of summery going into lovely autumn days left and having Loch Morlich, Loch Garten and Loch Insh nearby, there is plenty of opportunity to get out on the water to paddle board, canoe, kayak, sail, windsurf or even open water swim if that’s your thing?

**UPDATE 19:30 on 06 August

We are pleased to confirm that the Glenmore corridor will open tomorrow. This milestone is thanks to the work of partner organisations, gamekeepers, farmers, contractors, businesses and communities, who have pulled together and worked tirelessly to make the area safe.

In addition, today the Scottish Government announced a £3 million package of support for affected businesses, providing vital support at this difficult time.

This is really positive news, and we are hopeful that this marks the beginning of the journey into recovery, after a really difficult period.

Together with partners, we’ve created a handy map to provide clarity on what areas and paths are closed off, and what is open. As well as fencing and signage being installed, Park Authority staff, volunteer rangers and partner ranger services will be out on patrol from tomorrow ready to help welcome visitors back to Glenmore and chat through useful information and advice.

You can find this map and more information at the link in the comments ⬇️

🎉 WE'RE REOPENING! 🎉

After more than three weeks of closure following the Glenmore wildfire, we're delighted to announce that Loch Morlich Watersports and Boathouse Cafe Loch Morlich will reopen from 10.00am on Friday, 7th August! 🌊🚣‍♀️

Following a multi-agency assessment, the cordon around Glenmore will be lifted, allowing local businesses to reopen. We'd like to thank all of our customers, local residents, emergency services, and everyone who has supported us throughout this challenging time. Your patience and understanding have meant so much to our team. ❤️

⚠️ Please be aware:

Firefighting operations may still be taking place in parts of the Glenmore area as crews continue to deal with any remaining hotspots.
Some forest paths, mountain bike trails and roads will remain closed or have restricted access.
Please follow all signage and instructions from Forestry and Land Scotland and the Cairngorms National Park Authority when visiting.

🏄‍♂️ We can't wait to welcome everyone back onto the water! If you have a booking with us, we'll see you soon. If you've been waiting to get back out on Loch Morlich, bookings are now open and we look forward to seeing you this weekend.

Thank you once again for your incredible support. Here's to getting back on the water! 🌞💙
