Carrbridge
Carrbridge (,〔(The Online Scots Dictionary )〕 (スコットランド・ゲール語:Drochaid Chàrr))〔(Ainmean-Àite na h-Alba ~ Gaelic Place-Names of Scotland )〕 is a village in Badenoch and Strathspey in the Scottish Highlands. It lies off the A9 road on the A938 road, west of Skye of Curr, southeast of Findhom Bridge, near Bogroy. It has the oldest stone bridge in the Highlands and the nearby ancient pine forest contains the Landmark Forest Adventure Park.
==Geography==
Carrbridge is about 10 km north of Aviemore and forms a gateway to the Cairngorms National Park. It was an early centre for skiing in Scotland. In the 2001 census the village had a population of 708 people, with the majority employed in tourism.
Until the 1980s bypass was constructed, the A9 road ran straight through the village. Carrbridge is served by Carrbridge railway station on the Highland Main Line.
Local debate still rages regarding the name Carrbridge itself, with some preferring to see it hyphenated to ''Carr-bridge''. The word "Carr" has nothing to do with motorised transport but is derived from the Gaelic word for ''boggy area''.
