From Forres take the A96 west to the Findhorn bridge, then follow the Culbin Forest signs to Kintessack (3 miles) and Wellhill.

From Nairn take the A96 east to Brodie, turn left over the railway and along the unclassified roads to Cloddymoss and Kintessack. Wellhill is 1 mile beyond Kintessack.

By train: The nearest station is Forres, three miles from Wellhill on foot, or a ten minute taxi-ride.

By bus: Local buses run from Forres to Dyke and Kintessack, villages close to Wellhill, on schooldays, Tuesdays and Fridays. Just ask the driver or any other passenger for advice on the best place to walk from.
