Huntly Castle Ruins

Highlight • Castle

Ruins of a once magnificent palace complex from the 13th to 15th centuries. Very good presentation.

Horse Pot is the name of the pool in this section of the River Deveron. It's a popular salmon fishing river that starts in the Ladder Hills and flows down to the sea at Banff. This section north of Huntly has a nice path along it and makes a good circular walk taking in the castle and the town.

Huntly Town Centre

Highlight • Settlement

Huntly’s most popular attraction is the castle but the town itself is well worth a wonder. It's on the Speyside Whisky trail. The river Deveron flows just to the north and the Nordic Ski centre is here.
