A superb hike, which starts on the Corrie Fee Trail and continues to a waterfall and the summit of Mayar. The view of the waterfall and the heathland is magnificent. The climb is mainly from the waterfall. Make sure you have good hiking boots and a good windbreaker. You will be dazzled by the scenery.

Departure from Aberdeenshire
There are 11 cairns to discover within the Balmoral Estate and this short walk takes in two of them – Prince Albert’s Cairn (aka “the pyramid”!) and Princess Beatrice’s Cairn. A beautiful forestry trail awaits, and after a fairly steady walk uphill you will reach the summit of Creag an Lurachain (442 m /1450 ft) where the pyramid sits. A steeper but shorter descent follows, and a very lovely suspension bridge crossing.
