  1. Braemar Castle stands on a bluff rising above the south side of the River Dee. This L-plan tower house dates from 1628 and is surrounded by a star-shaped defensive wall added in 1748 when the castle was used by government troops. More pics and info: undiscoveredscotland.co.uk/bra

  2. Frost in Braemar this morning but then a lovely few hours before high cloud moved in & wind increased, still a fine day for the hill though. Went up Beinn A Bhuird from Linn Of Quoich. Fine views of Ben Avon still bathed in sunlight from the Summit. #scotland #hillwalking #hiking #braemar 🥾

  3. Heather and pine near #Braemar in the #Cairngorms , out for a walk with the family. Lovely!

  6. We recently enjoyed re-visiting our #Invercauld - #Keiloch - #CragganRour route and have updated the guidance. We were reminded what a marvellous circuit this is, surrounded by high hills and wild countryside, easy walking with fantastic views at every turn, although never far from the A93 road … 😀

    North East Forest Alliance laments Land and Environment Court loss, says koalas will suffer
    "The Land and Environment Court has rejected an application to stop logging in two bushfire affected forests in north-east NSW."
    "This was our last official legal attempt to try and save the koalas. "They're going to take out most of their feed trees."

  20. Ecological restoration that you can see from space!

    Aerial #Landsat imagery of the #NTScotland Mar Lodge Estate near #Braemar

    At left: from 1995 around the time of acquisition by the National Trust for #Scotland
    At right: from 2023, 28 years later

    No more muirburn (linear tracts of upland heather moor burnt to encourage young grouse), and clear regeneration of trees thanks to their policy of deer management.

    Would love to see other examples of dramatic changes like this! The Landsat data isn't very high resolution, but you can see big changes over long periods.

  25. Another shot from #braemar, #scotland. It's quite different from my other Scotland-shots. But I think it works quite well in the dark theme.
    If you visit Braemar, have a look at it! It's a really nice spot.

  26. Just one more from our first #hillwalking in #Sctoland near #Braemar in #Aberdeenshire.
    Honestly, when I took it, I didn't think that it would turn out so strong. But I really like it now.

    As my wife and me, both, wanted/needed new mouse pads, we ordered Mousepads with this photo. Best decision! Now I can see it all the day 🙂

  27. One more shot from awesome #Scotland near #Braemar. It was a great day a nice hill, super view, no people, nice trails...
    We really so enjoyed it 🥰 It is hard to describe the whole day in a couple of characters. Feel free to check out the blog.

    And if you go to Scotland: enjoy the #landscape !

  28. View from the Morrone over Braemar.. We've been on the way down again when I saw that view. Well what should I say. It's just been a great day!
    Don't underestimate the Morrone. It's not that high and the trail is easy with trekking shoes. But the wind at the summit can be really really cold. I imagined an additional nice rainshower and a great day would turn into a mess.
    Better be save than sorry

  29. Cheers from a trail in the Scottish Highlands! It was epic. I tried to imagine this trail in foggy mood. Must be amazing. But even without fog, we just enjoyed this walk as much as possible.

  30. Good morning with some memories of this Summit in Scotland! It's been PRETTY windy up there. But the view was amazing.

    About today: I guess I'll be having a calm Sunday today.
    How about you?

  32. @im the Cairngorms should definitely on your travellist if you travel to Scotland. They are beautiful, the A93 through the Cairngorms is one of the most beautiful roads we ever travelled.
