Comyn's Road is an ancient roadway in Scotland, linking Blair Atholl in Perth and Kinross and Ruthven, Badenoch, in the Highlands. Named for Clan Cumming (Clan Comyn), it runs for 27miles, although today it is only visible in the high ground between Dalnamein Forest and Gaick Forest.[1]
The road dates to the mediaeval period, and was in use until the 17th century, when a shorter route, the Minigaig, was favoured.[2]
