The Grampian and Cairngorm area projects into the North Sea and could be described as, the “Knuckle of NE Scotland“. The varied and interesting coastline extends north from Montrose to Fraserburgh and then west to a point midway between Findhorn and Nairn. The western limit meanders southwards through Lochindorb, Bridge of Brown and over the Cairngorm mountains to Carn Ealar in the South. The southerly boundary passes through the ski slopes of the Cairnwell, continues south of Glen Muick and then along the northern rim of Glen Esk to the sea at Montrose.

Our Area
