It is located in Ruthven Road, Kingussie about 200 yards South-East of the High Street. There are two platforms, one of conventional height on the Down line and another of somewhat lower height on the Up line; the station buildings are on the Down platform. A level crossing takes Ruthven Road over both tracks at the Inverness end of the station, with the local signal box at that end of the Up platform.
