Falls of Feugh
The Falls of Feugh are a picturesque series of cascades on the Water of Feugh, the largest tributary of the River Dee. The footbridge over the river, offers a perfect vantage point to watch salmon leaping upstream during their spawning seasons.

Cairn O’Mount
The scenic and winding road takes us through National Forestry Woodlands to heath land and heather covered hillsides. We like to call it our highlands in miniature as it offers similar landscapes and views only on a smaller scale.

Dunnottar Castle
Dunnottar Castle is a dramatic and historic ruin perched on a cliff overlooking the North Sea. From sacred site to family home and latter a military fortress, this castle has played a significant role in Scottish history, including sheltering the Scottish Crown Jewels. The castle's stunning location and rich history make it a must-visit for those exploring the region. Explore the grounds, the view points and bay during this stop.

There are a lot of steps/stairs up to the castle, and may not suitable for all. (Entry into the castle is an optional extra)

Then take a stroll around the picturesque Stonehaven Harbour, and along the sandy beach and admire the sculptures along the boardwalk.
