The organizers of the Outsider Festival have blamed the recession for forcing the cancellation of June's event.The festival was first held in 2007 and organizers had promoted it as an environmentally-friendly event with an emphasis on outdoor pursuits.
The message on the site says "The Outsider programme was ambitious and ground breaking, combining live music and DJs with activities - including mountain biking and running - with debate and discussion, film, comedy and food in a uniquely beautiful and environmentally important setting; Rothiemurchus in the Cairngorm National Park.
"Clearly a recession is not the time to realise this bold new concept but we still believe the Outsider was right for its time and perfect for its place and are hugely disappointed that it is not going ahead."
