St Combs to Rattray Head
Summary
Extending south from St Combs is a vast system of dunes and a huge sandy beach, stretching all the way to Peterhead. The southern stretch is backed by a major gas terminal, but as far as Rattray Head the hinterland is the Strathbeg Nature Reserve; it makes a great one-way walk.
Terrain
Most of the distance is across sandy beach, with a detour inland across dunes and beside a lagoon which can be wet.
Public Transport
St Combs has a bus service, but there is none to or from the end of the walk at Rattray Head.
Start
St Combs.
