Duthie Park is a fabulous park located close to the city centre, which is popular with locals and visitors alike. The 44 acre site was donated to the city by Miss Elizabeth Duthie in 1880 and opened as a park in 1883. It is recognised as one of the best purposely designed parks in Scotland.

Hiking

One of the oldest and original feature in Duthie Park and an interesting point to visit. Climb to the top of the mound to get a better view of the park.

Running

The mound is an old feature of Duthie park, and is a good training focal point. The path up the hill is tarmac, and there are also some steps around the back.
