It is  listed as one of Scotland's Great Trails by NatureScot, and links directly to two further Great Trails: the Dava Way and the Moray Coast Trail. About 52,750 people use the path every year, of whom about 2,750 complete the entire route. As with the other Great Trails, the Way is waymarked with a symbol showing a thistle in a hexagon.

In 2021 the route's official website was  modernised and its former bootprint logo replaced by a green-blue circle enclosing a stylised distillery and salmon.
