Aberdeen city

Aberdeen is Scotland's third largest city after Edinburgh and Glasgow.Aberdeen has flourished for centuries as a trading centre for the north east of Scotland relying heavily on its port to import and export goods.

The North Sea Trail in Aberdeen is a varied route from the windswept dramatic cliffs between Cove and NiggBay, around the busy commercial AberdeenHarbour and northwards into Aberdeenshire as it follows the graceful sweep of AberdeenBay.

Aberdeen is served by AberdeenDyceAirport which has regular flights to Scandinavia, the Netherlands and other parts of Europe and the UK.

There are plenty of places to stay in Aberdeen most of which are easily accessible from the North Sea Trail either on foot or by local bus.
