The permanent course at Linn of Dee was launched as part of the Cairngorm Nature BIG weekend. The facility is now available for everyone to enjoy and offers an opportunity to explore some stunning highland scenery whilst at the same time practising your navigational skills. The course is ideal for families and groups with two levels of length and difficulty. The map and information about the course can now be downloaded via the Maroc website here www.marocscotland.org.uk/permanent-courses/linn-of-dee-pocArtist du Jour! Tom Barron! Some of you might have noticed already - Tom is our Artist in residence here at the Braemar Gallery and will be working with us ongoing.
