About Kincraig
Kincraig is a village. Location: Highland, Scotland. Elevation: 248 m.
Kincraig (Scottish Gaelic: Ceann na Creige) is a village located north of Kingussie and south of Aviemore in Highland, Scotland. Its original name was Boat of Inch, reflecting the ferry boat crossing of the Spey River that once operated here but the name was changed after a single track bridge was erected in 1871. The village lies at the side of the former A9, the B9152, and close to the current dual carriageway, which was upgraded in 2017 as part of the A9 dualling project.
