Our Castle grounds have been redeveloped to improve accessibility and enrich our visitors’ experience.
- An accessible Timeline Trail leads to the Castle entrance and traces key events in the Castle history.
- The reinstated 1930s Kitchen Garden, with a focus on health and wellbeing, displays a simple layout planted with heritage varieties of fruit and vegetables. An outdoor audio post reminiscences about life growing up in Braemar.
- The Fog House, a 19th century folly with a thatched heather roof, is the best location to enjoy wonderful views towards Invercauld Estate.
- Our spiral path with a little standing stone in the centre provides endless fun to young visitors.
- Our ancient Scots pines and newly planted young native trees are home to a woodland trail and local wildlife.
- The Welcome Cabin within the curtain wall is equipped with accessible toilets, exhibition panels, souvenir shop and ticket office.
