Mar Lodge Estate

Deeside Tourist Route

Encompassing almost seven percent of the stunning Cairngorms National Park, Mar Lodge Estate covers 29,000 hectares (290 km2) and includes 15 Munros (mountains over 3,000 ft). Stretch your legs on a stroll around one of the trails and soak up the magnificent scenery in the National Park. Keep your eyes peeled for majestic red deer, golden eagles and pine marten as you wander too. Also in the Cairngorms National Park, look out for Glenshee Ski Centre, where you can hone your snowsports skills in the winter months, and Braemar Castle, which has stood since 1628 and boasts a fascinating history.
