The River Tromie ({{lang-gd|Tromaidh / Abhainn Tromaidh}}) is a right bank tributary of the River Spey in northeast Scotland. It emerges from the northern end of Loch an t-Seilich within the Gaick Forest and flows northwards, then northwestwards down through Glen Tromie to Bhran Cottage where it turns to the north-northeast. It is bridged by the B970 road at Tromie Bridge near Drumguish and flows a further 1.25 miles (2 km) northwest to meet the Spey near Lynchat. Loch an t-Seilich is fed by the Allt Loch an Duin which arises at Loch an Duin and passes through Loch Bhrodainn on its way north to Loch an t-Seilich, being joined on its right by the Allt Gharbh Ghaig before it does so.[1] EtymologyThe name 'Tromie' is an anglicisation of the Gaelic word for 'elder tree'.[2] References1. ^Ordnance Survey 1:50,000 scale Landranger map sheet 35 Kingussie and 42 Loch Rannoch {{coord|57|05|N|4|00|W|display=title|region:GB_type:river_source:GNS-enwiki}}{{Scotland-river-stub}}2. ^Ross, D. 2001 Scottish Place-names, Birlinn, Edinburgh 2 : Rivers of Highland (council area)|Spey basin |
