Dunbeath to Braemore (6 miles/10 km)

Just to the south of the village of Dunbeath, a road branches inland to Braemore. This stretch is a public, tarred road and the pilgrim could arrange transport from Dunbeath to Braemore. There is an alternative walking path going up the river past the House of Peace, across a burn, past a broch and on to join the road just before Braemore. (This has not been investigated.)
