The Formartine and Buchan cycle and walking trail crosses the River Don here. You can see a gauging station just upstream, past the power lines.

Maud, formerly known as Brucklay is a quaint village that once served as a crucial junction for the Fraserburgh and Peterhead railway lines. The station, a lasting testament to its historical significance, now houses the Formartine & Buchan Railway Museum. Note that the museum operates seasonally during the summer, so it's advisable to check the opening times before planning your visit.

Opened on July 18, 1861, by the Formartine and Buchan Railway, Udny Station featured a station building on the southbound platform and a goods yard on the east side, complete with a goods shed. Udny Station closed its doors on October 4, 1965 and today stands as a point of interest on the hiking and cycling route of the Formartine and Buchan Trail.

Here you’ll pass over the River Don, a tranquil waterway which originates in the Grampian Mountains, specifically in the Peatlands of Aberdeenshire. It flows eastward through Aberdeenshire, passing through various towns and eventually empties into the North Sea at Aberdeen.

The church stands within 300 yards of the shore and was built at the beginning of the nineteenth century. It accommodates 654 persons with sittings. The church records contain a variety of documents which detail many aspects of the daily lives of all types of people throughout Scotland from the 16th century onwards.

Deer Abbey is just of the Formartine and Buchan way and well worth stopping by. Maintained by Historic Scotland and free entry, the ruins are interesting to explore. Is it said this was once the home of the book of deer, the oldest know Gaelic writing.
