Nethy Bridge is a small village in the Highland council area of Scotland, sitting on the banks of the River Nethy within the Cairngorms National Park. It is surrounded by remnants of the ancient Caledonian pinewoods of Abernethy Forest and lies in the heart of Strathspey, close to Aviemore, Boat of Garten and Grantown-on-Spey, so it makes a quiet base for walkers, birdwatchers and anyone exploring Speyside.
The village grew up around its river crossing and still has a compact, traditional feel with cottages, independent shops and a strong community life; the local economy leans on tourism, forestry and outdoor pursuits. Nearby heritage and leisure attractions such as the preserved Strathspey Railway and regional distilleries add character and draw visitors, while the surrounding forests and hills provide year‑round outdoor opportunities.
