Walk around the nearest shore of Loch Muick and back to the car park within an hour. Deer sightings often and Royal sightings possible! Longer walks available. We took our buggy round the short walk but it is rough in places!

Good walks of all lengths and difficulty. Rich in wildlife as retains part of the old Caledonian forest. Resident Osprey and Capercaillie. Ring the bell at St Lesmo's Chapel.

I can recommend their activities having done a corporate day here (quad bikes and go karts particularly good). Tea and scones are fine and there is a lovely walk to Dess waterfall from the car park which is one of the best views in the local area. A mile away from Millstream.

Just back in service after the flooding a few years ago. Pleasant short walk on your way to Ballater.

Interesting castle (find out about the Laird's lug!) You can climb up to the top of the tower and go outside and admire the view.

Very impressive when the salmon are jumping and you will see a lot of salmon jumping in season and wonder how they can make it up the falls. There is a resident heron and good cafe nearby.

Not to see Torry Battery but to watch the dolphins at the mouth of Aberdeen harbour. It is one of the best places in Scotland for regularly seeing a large pod of Dolphins. Take binoculars if possible and park at the Torry Battery car park. Free parking.

I haven't been into the castle. You can only view the ballroom inside. You will get a glimpse of it from the road though.

Food Scene
Excellent fresh fish and chips take away and the chicken fillets are made from real breast and battered. There are tables outside you can use for takeaway so on a nice evening take some cutlery, glasses, plates (if you don't want to eat out of cardboard) and a sauvignon blanc and enjoy!

Banchory Lodge has good food, service and surroundings in a country house hotel. It has a super spot on the Dee where the River Feugh joins it and was considered to be the 3rd best dining room view in the country by the Daily Mail. A bit pricey and limited menu but still recommended.

Friendly ski centre. Main slope small so suitable for beginners/ improvers only. Nursery slope is excellent for children learning to ski and has a magic carpet. Council run, good, cheap and the surface has just been renewed. Lessons available or just ski at a public session (you have to have basic skills). They also do tubing if you don't fancy skiing. Haughton Country Park or Alford Pool good as an add on.

Olympic sized outdoor pool heated to 29 degrees, paddling pool, sunbathing areas. Other ideas for when in Stonehaven are to wander around Stonehaven harbour (home of the fireballs New Year celebration) and view Dunnottar Castle.

This is one of the best hotels in the area and serves excellent food from an award winning chef but the main reason for it's inclusion here is that the health club is open to all at a cost of £12 a visit. There is a lovely little pool which is always warm, jacuzzi, steam room and sauna. You have to phone to make a pool booking which are on the hour. Also a gym and tennis courts and nice walks in the gardens and the Estate.

Outdoor play area good fun (especially the jumping pillows). Children will enjoy feeding the animals which includes an indoor barn. Good indoor soft play. Expensive if multiple adults as adults have to pay though.

The soft play (Den) is excellent for toddlers and up to about aged 8 as there are some fun, fast slides and a large soft play area. It is very clean and the food is reasonable. The Glen is an Aberdeen classic! It consists of some good and some fairly ropey fibreglass statues hand painted and outdoor play equipment in a park setting and can't be recommended for anyone over 6. However, young children enjoy it and it is pretty good value with a free play at the soft play if you book a trip to the Glen.

Lovely beach, dunes and large car park. The beach goes all the way up the coast to Newburgh. This is now easily accessible using the new Aberdeen Bypass.

This is an hour and a half's scenic and fun drive away (especially the steep hill at Bridge of Brown) but worth the trip if you have children. The dinosaurs are great (they move and roar and there are lots of them to see) and there are also high ropes adventures, log flumes, tree top trail, electric cars, walk through butterfly house and optical illusion display.
