Geocache Description:

The cache is located near to the edge of the road so be careful of traffic.

This cache is located on the outskirts of Strathdon.

Each 4th Saturday in August since 1823 the Lonach Gathering and Highland Games are held at Bellabeg Park in Strathdon. It was founded by Sir Charles Forbes. It is said to be Scotland's most friendliest games.

The day's events start with the March of the Clansmen at 8 am where they visit prominent households in the area claiming a wee dram of whisky at each stop. This includes a visit to Candacraig House where comedian Billy Connolly and his wife Pamela Stephenson live. They attend most years and bring many of their show business friends such as Dame Judi Dench, Steve Martin, Steve Buscemi, Eric Idle, Anna Friel, David Thewlis, Ewan McGregor, Eddie Izzard, Brian Cox and Adrian Quinn. The Clansmen are dressed in full highland dress and carry battle pikes and axes, marching over the hills for about 6 miles.
