The River Dee rises in the Cairngorm Mountains and runs east along “Royal Deeside” to Braemar, Crathie and Ballater and then past Aboyne and Banchory to its mouth at Aberdeen. It is perhaps one of the loveliest routes in Scotland. In addition to mountaineering and hill walking in the area there is ski-ing at Glenshee and the Lecht. There are golf courses at Ballater, Braemar and Aboyne. Primary schooling, health centre, cottage hospital and a wide range of local shops are found in Aboyne, along with secondary schooling.

The walk starts and finishes at the historic ruin of the Church of St Mary in Kincardine O’Neil, the oldest village on Deeside. The present structure dates back to the 14thC but it is believed to have been a place of Christian worship from the 6thC. This walking route takes in a number of old roads, starting with Gallowhill Road, its purpose deriving from Medieval times when every feudal baron was required to erect a gibbet (gallows) for the execution of male criminals, and sink a well or pit, for the drowning of females! Soon after, the route follows a short section of the Old Deeside Road, now a farm track, which dates to before the great agricultural improvements that started in the 1700's.

Issues General Concern was raised that there is a lack of service capacity within Aboyne in relation to the proposed population increase (109). An impact assessment should be undertaken of the proposed development to assess the effect on general local infrastructure (730, 1054). Concern was raised that there is an oversupply of housing in Aboyne and no need for additional allocations (188, 217, 1043) with one respondent noting that there is an oversupply specifically of housing that is not low cost (12). The MIR for Marr states that there is not a need for further allocations in Aboyne (1043).
