Introduction

Aberdeenshire is located on the North East shoulder of Scotland.

One of Scotland’s largest Councils in area, it has a diverse landscape from the Cairngorm Mountains in the West to the three main river valleys of the Dee, Don and Deveron with rich agricultural land like the Howe of the Mearns lieing behind a 250-kilometre coastline, which is as varied as it is long.

This coastline includes extensive beach and dune systems, towering cliffs and secluded coves all linked by the North Sea Trail – The Aberdeenshire Coastal Path.

The natural beauty of the coast is complimented by the forty or so coastal towns and picturesque fishing villages such as Collieston and Crovie and includes the major fishing ports of Fraserburgh and Peterhead.
