Extended this to 3.8 miles by adding on a jolly around Braemar (plus pre-walk coffee and cake at Taste) and a detour to the Mill House on the Cluny at the end.

After Craig Leek we headed straight for Taste and sat outside looking across to the darkening skies. Can't underestimate the importance of pre-walk coffee and cake!!

Boys will be boys. Skimming.


Lovely Autumnal day and a top walk taking in lots of "must-have" houses overlooking the River Dee.
