Things to see and do Inverurie

It is probably the most spectacular castle in the area. Depending on your desires and budget, you can take a simple tour of the gardens, as well as access the tea room for a snack in the old kitchens. The landscaped park and the view of the building are an enchantment in themselves. Of course, a visit to the castle - guided tour or self-guided tour with documentation - is recommended, as its interiors are superb and reveal fascinating stories.

This place does double duty. It is the starting point for walks and hikes in one of Aberdeenshire's most beautiful and well-known natural areas. From the summit of Oxen Craig (528m) or Mither Tap, to the trails through the beautiful forest of the Grampian Mountain Range. In the Visitor Centre you will find leaflets on possible tours and a permanent exhibition on the heritage of the area: how the hills were transformed, their flora and fauna, forestry..

The Garioch Heritage Centre was established in October 2017. It brings together and exhibits the collections of the Garioch Heritage Society which, since 1987, has been researching the history of the region and collecting objects from the past, bearing witness to the professional and domestic life of the past. The museum tells the story of life in this region of Scotland from the early 20th century to the present day: life in a locomotive assembly and manufacturing workshop, on a dairy farm, the trades specific to the region, all under the watchful eye of a 20-tonne crane.
