Rest and Be Thankful Stone

Highlight • Monument

A nice spot for a rest on the Fungle Road singletrack route. There's a handy bench that I'm told used to have a view of the surrounding hills before the trees got big.

Top of Fungle Road Singletrack

This is where you join the dirt road up from the Dee Valley after after the tricky singletrack climb named Fungle Road that isn't always rideable.

At the top of Carnferg, at 1,673 feet (510 metres), you'll find this stone obelisk. It's a distinctive hill above Aboyne and on a clear day you can see this stone obelisk from some way away! For the very best views, visit in the late summer or early autumn when the heather moor is in full bloom.

This part of the relish has become particularly flowy. Many bumps and small features invite you to jump and you can explore the trail yourself depending on your riding skills

Biresmore Loch or the Queens Loch is a short walk from Aboyne. A loop of the loch takes about 30 minutes. This point is an ideal spot to enjoy the view and perhaps go in for a paddle / swim.
