애버딘셔 최고의 라이딩 경로

아주 맛있는 음식, 친절한 서비스 - 적극 추천합니다! "the bothy"라는 이름이 낯선 분들을 위해: 스코틀랜드 사람이 설명해주길, „bothy“는 (주로) 산에 있는 오두막으로, 젖고 지치고 배고픈 등산객이 불을 피우고, 요리하고, 잠을 자는 데 필요한 모든 것을 갖추고 있다고 합니다. 사용 후에는 등산객이 오두막을 깨끗한 상태로 만들고, 가능한 모든 것을 보충하며, 나머지 일은 이 임무에 헌신한 자원봉사자들이 처리합니다. 훌륭한 제도입니다!

Stunning views and a great short walk to the War Memorial.

There's nothing more to see here than a gate. Hidden behind it, of course, is Balmoral Castle, the famous summer residence of the British royal family. With a ticket, we were able to visit it with our bikes in hand, which was really nice.

During our cycling trip through the Cairngorms, we slept in a bothy every night, but we didn't find it anywhere else as comfortable as this one ;-) Delicious coffee and food. Plenty of room for everyone, and with an outdoor shop next door, it's also the perfect place to stock up on rations.

One of Aberdeenshire's iconic climbs. Steep but short!

The visitor centre is quite informative about the local flora and fauna. Car parking spaces have increased greatly with the opening of the parking area nearer the visitor centre. In May 2024, the parking fee was £5 per day payable using various methods at a machine including contactless.

The small car park (of which there is now a charge) is the staring point for may Munros in the area as well as smaller peaks and walks around the loch. Here there is a small visitor centre with toilets. The walk to the loch takes about 10 - 15 minutes and can be made in to a circuit. Those who decide to walk all the way around the loch should allow for 2-3 hours.

This is a really neat spot to relax with a stunning view over the bay and harbor of Stonehaven. There are two benches, so just take your time to enjoy this picture postcard scene.
