Stonehaven had grown around an Iron Age fishing village, now the Auld Toon , and expanded inland from the seaside. As late as the 16th century, old maps indicate the town was called Stonehyve, Stonehive, Pont also adding the alternative Duniness. It is known informally to locals as Stoney.

11. Cairngorm Reindeer Centre Glenmore
The Cairngorms are a mountain range in the eastern Highlands of Scotland closely associated with the mountain of the Cairn Gorm. The Cairngorms became part of Scotland's second national park on 1 September 2003. Although the Cairngorms give their name to, and are at the heart of, the Cairngorms National Park, they only form one part of the national park, alongside other hill ranges such as the Angus Glens and the Monadhliath, and lower areas like Strathspey. The Cairngorms consists of high plateaux at about 1000–1200 m above sea level, above which domed summits rise to around 1300 m. Many of the summits have tors, free-standing rock outcrops that stand on top of the boulder-strewn landscape. The edges of the plateaux are in places steep cliffs of granite and they are excellent for skiing...

Walking the Deeside Way - Part 3 of 3 (Aboyne to Ballater)

The final episode in a three part series.

The Deeside Way is a long distance path in Scotland running from near the centre of Aberdeen City, to Ballater, in the Cairngorms National Park.

The route follows the line of the Old Royal Deeside Railway from Aberdeen to Banchory, through woodland and farmland to Kincardine O’Neil and then rejoins the old line from Aboyne to Ballater, total distance 41 miles.

The Deeside Railway was a line that travelled from Aberdeen to Ballater as a stretch of the Great North of Scotland Railway. Its tracks have since been removed in their entirety and the path opened as a track to the public. While in operation, the railway was used by the British Royal Family during travel to their Scottish retreat at Balmoral, hence the local name the Royal Deeside Line.

The path is suitable for walkers and cyclists with many sections suitable for horses as well and is Route 135 of the National Cycle Network which is coordinated and promoted by Sustrans.

This is my third time walking the route (first walked in 2014), as I live nearby the start, I consider it my gateway to the Cairngorms.
On this occasion I am joined by a special guest.

Aboyne Golf Club, Royal Deeside

Set amidst the scenic splendour of Royal Deeside, Aboyne Golf Club can fairly claim to have some of the finest vistas and panoramas of any course in Scotland.

The course provides a fine test for golfers of all abilities. It presents a rich variety of memorable holes making the most of the natural variations in the terrain which is a mix of rolling parkland with inviting fairways and elevated links-like heathland with tighter targets. Mature trees and water are in play on many holes, with the Loch of Aboyne being a notable feature.

Gathering in Scotland

Scotland has been a part of the United Kingdom for more than 300 years, yet it has managed to maintain its distinct customs, culture and character. Joseph dons his tartan and joins the Scottish clans for a bit of culture and fun at The Gathering in Edinburgh where hundreds of clans and thousands of people come together for sport, folk dancing, arts, crafts and bag piping. During his travels Joseph explores Glasgow, imbibes a dram or two of the local product at an island whiskey distillery and meets his grace, the Duke of Argyle, at Inveraray Castle during the Campbell clans’ Highland Games.

Scotland road trip 2015 | Day nine: From Ballater to Edinburgh
- Stay tuned: -

Hi! I'm Cécile, a French student of 19 years old. This summer, I went to Scotland with my family and we did a road trip. I decided to film a little bit everyday because I thought it was going to be amazing, and I wasn't wrong. After the trip, I wanted to edit the videos, and I realized I loved to do this. The videos turned pretty good, so I decided to upload these on Youtube to share this wonderful trip with others. It helped me to watch videos to plan my road trip, so I hope my little videos are going to help some of you to see the best of Scotland.

If you have any questions about the monuments, cities, hotels, restaurants, or if you want to know which camera I used or how I edited my videos, please, feel free to ask, I would love to answer your questions.

Also, if you want to see some photos I took in Scotland, you can check my Instagram:

I hope you enjoyed the video. With love, Cécile.

Tradition has it that he established his settlement on the banks of the River Dee. John Macqueen Cowan, who was born in 1892 in Banchory, was a prominent Scottish botanist in the mid 20th century.
