Description

The Linn of Dee also had us off the bike. The raging torrent of water confined into deep gashes in the rocks pouring around and over huge boulders with deep black dangerous- looking pools. The area is a tourist attraction but as yet we were the only visitors present. We had visited the area some years ago, having crossed the Cairngorms on that occasion from Aviemore to Braemar. This time we intended crossing via a slightly different route but in the reverse direction. At the Linn of Dee the signposted way is right towards Derry Lodge but we had seen a path marked on our map from Whitebridge
