The Bedford Bridge at the Falls of Tarf The Tarf Water was the most dangerous spot on the long walk between Linn of Dee <a href="https://www.geograph.org.uk/gridref/NO0689">NO0689</a> near Braemar and Blair Atholl <a href="https://www.geograph.org.uk/gridref/NN8765">NN8765</a>, and following the death by drowning of a student here, this bridge was opened in 1886.

Father and I were relaxing briefly during the second of two long days walking. At least, they were long for the 22-year-old me: 32km on the first day with arduous ascent, and 38km on this, the second day, though with gentle slopes and good tracks. But we could not rest for long - we had to catch the train back from Blair Atholl to Aviemore!
