点评:We continued about 2 miles beyond the turnoff on the B9089 for the official Roseisle Forest car park and, whilst heading towards Burghead, came upon a small car park at the edge of the woods. It was free to park here and we walked the forest road beyond the gate, took a right at the T-junction and followed the track through peaceful forest until we reached the beach on the outskirts of Burghead. It’s a trail which has a gentle rolling terrain likely to appeal to cyclists but we didn’t come across too many of them, or other people for that matter. There are a few access points to the beach through the dunes but if you follow the trail to the end it’s probably the easiest route. The beach is sandy but very exposed.
When we arrived at Burghead, next to the caravan park, there was a kiosk selling refreshments however it only had outdoor seating and the windy weather didn’t tempt us to stop there. With hindsight we probably should have done so because there was no café in the town and the only other option was a takeaway from the Co-Op.
After visiting the Burghead Fort Visitor Centre and the Well we returned roughly the same route, stopping off to have a look at a WWII pillbox which had been built on the sand dunes. Like all castles erected on pillars of sand it had suffered subsidence and was tilted at an unusual angle blocking any chance of access. In keeping with the military theme we got a flypast of three helicopters following the coastline towards Kinloss.
The area was very pleasant for a walk which included forest and beach and in our case included a visit to Burghead where there were public toilets at the harbour.
翻译:我们继续行驶了大约2英里,驶离了B9089公路通往罗斯尔森林官方停车场的岔路口,在前往伯格黑德的途中,在树林边缘发现了一个小型停车场。这里停车免费,我们沿着大门外的林间小路走,在T字路口右转,沿着小路穿过宁静的森林,最终到达伯格黑德郊外的海滩。这条小路地势起伏平缓,很适合骑行,但我们并没有遇到太多骑行者,也没遇到其他人。穿过沙丘有几个通往海滩的入口,但如果你沿着小路走到尽头,这可能是最容易的路线。海滩是沙质的,但非常开阔。
我们到达伯格黑德时,在房车公园旁边有一个售卖茶点的售货亭,但只有户外座位,而且刮风的天气也没有吸引我们在那里停留。事后看来,我们或许应该这么做,因为镇上没有咖啡馆,唯一的选择就是去合作社买外卖。
参观完伯格黑德堡游客中心和水井后,我们大致原路返回,中途停下来参观了一座建在沙丘上的二战碉堡。像所有建在沙柱上的城堡一样,它遭受了地陷,并以异常的角度倾斜,阻碍了任何通行。为了配合军事主题,我们观看了三架直升机沿着海岸线飞越金洛斯。
这片区域非常适合散步,有森林和海滩,我们还去了伯格黑德,那里的港口有公共卫生间。
