Enjoy a farm walk

Our popular nature walks will take you through beautiful woodland and along the River Dee as it travels through Aberdeenshire. From some high points you can see Lochnagar in the distance on a clear day.

Take a walk around the lake or stroll around our paddock trail where you can meet some of the ponies.
