Aberdeenshire is a large county in the North East of Scotland. It includes the towns and cities of Aberdeen , Peterhead, Fraserburgh, Inverurie, Huntly, Ellon and Turriff. The county is popular with tourists visiting the stunning Cairngorms mountain range and the rivers Dee, Don, Deveron, Ugie and Ythan are a magnet for anglers, canoeists and white water rafters. Aberdeenshire is many cases exactly what people expect Scotland to be with plentiful malt whisky, heather-clad moors,a castle at every corner, frequent Highland Games and unpretentious people with very individual speech and identity.
