King Robert's great charter of 1319, allowed the citizens of Aberdeen to own the Burgh, the forests and all the revenue from the land within the borders. The revenue from the Freedom Lands is known as "The Common Good Fund". The Burgh borders were marked by 67 March Stones the first being Alpha and the last Omega. The stones can still be found today, Alpha is near Old Ford Road on the banks of the Dee, whilst Omega is in open ground by the Bridge of Don.
Suggested parking is near Chapel works in Bucksburn. There is a 2 metre height resriction.
From the car park follow the path along the most beautiful of walks that links the tranquil Craibstone woodland Estate to Tyre Bagger woods.
March Stones 34, 35 & 36 are all located on a path near Craibstone Golf Course. Allow just over an hour to complete the circuit.
As March Stones 34 and 35 are very close together, March stone 34 has been set as a waypoint.
The coordinates will take you to the cache which is located approximately 300 feet away from the stone.
Once you have logged the cache you will see stone 34 near a style on your way the to stone 35
