What To Expect
Discover the beauty of Lochnagar with our team of local experts!
Be expertly guided to the summit of the famous Lochnagar, the north-east's most spectacular mountain. Situated on the Balmoral Estate, the area has many Royal connections and stories, including the "Widow's Lodge" on the banks of Loch Muick. With beautiful pine forests, stunning mountain views, waterfalls, and abundant nature, this walk is sure to create lasting memories of the majestic Scottish Highlands.
Walk distances of up to 19km may vary depending on the weather. An alternative, but still beautiful, lower-level walk in the area will be guided on the day if the weather is too much for the summit.
A good level of fitness will be required for this hike.

There is a charge to park at the Spittal of Glenmuick of £5 for the day.
