I don't know the Rob Roy Way but I am familiar with the Cairngorms. If you finish up at Pitlochry you could get a train or bus up to Aviemore, replenish supplies and hike out to Loch Morlich where there is a very good campsite, and plenty of day walks amongst natural Scots Pine forest with loads of wildlife, or higher up amongst the hills with impressive views. It's a great spot. On the other side of the Cairngorms the village of Braemar has a campsite on the road out towards Glen Shee. That's a nice spot too. Ballater has a campsite by the River Dee.
Is the camp site you refer to at Loch Morlich
Glenmore Camping In The Forest?
Am I right in thinking the walk from Aviemore station to Loch Morlich takes between 2 and 3 hours?
I notice there is no camp site or hostel at Aviemore.
Many thanks for this - I would have been unaware of these spots otherwise.
