Introducing Kingussie & Newtonmore

If you think these two hamlets are just another pair of sleepy one-street towns, think again - because running between them is Scotland's best regional museum, the Highland Folk Museum. There's just a couple of miles between the villages, but this distance, and friendships, gets stretched in the fierce rivalry of regular shinty matches, a game related to hurling but tougher. The Kingussie branch of the museum serves as a tourist office(661297; Duke St; Mon-Sat Apr-Oct).
