Cycle Steps
1. A circuit I do in summer/autumn, strictly mountain bike. There is one section of the Hill of Fayre near the base where you will have to carry the bike for a hundred yards or so. Sometimes I may deviate and cycle through the firetrack to Midmar instead and back past Echt. This is easier. A harder circuit for road bikes instead of mtb, is to cycle right round the Hill of Fayre past Echt, Midmar etc. which I also do sometimes.
Landmarks/Sites to see?
Tea, coffee, snacks, shop at Schoolhill (Flora's Cafe) before tackling the hill, Raemoir Hotel, Banchory detour, Hirn Recording studio. Apart from that, nearly all unclassified roads and rough track.
