The Dinnie Steens are transported to the Aboyne Highland Games each year, for all the strong people to have a go! 💪
The rest of the year, you can check them out at the Potarch Café and enjoy their all day brunch while you are there!

The Dinnie Stones located at the Potarch Cafe

Now ordinary folk would struggle to lift even the smallest Dinnie Stone, however in 1860 Donald Dinnie famously carried them both with his bare hands across the width of Potarch Bridge – a distance of 17' 1 1/2"!!
