Welcome to Braemar

Creag Choinnich Nature Trail has recently had a new hide installed. Follows the trails to discover it. A great activity for young families as the forest bursts into life after the winter

Braemar is situated in the heart of the Cairngorms National Park and close to Balmoral castle in Royal Deeside.

Our lovely village is surrounded by stunning mountain scenery, beautiful glens containing ancient pine forests which contain abundant wildlife.

The village has a good range of accommodation options, independent and boutique shops plus some fine places to eat out. The latest monthly guide is here
