The Deeside Way largely follows the route of the Old Royal Deeside Railway from Aberdeen to Ballater. The path is suitable for walkers and cyclists with many sections suitable for horses as well. The majority of the route is suitable for child buggies and wheelchairs can access to within a few metres of all caches. Further details on the Deeside Way can be found at www.deesideway.org The route is waymarked using the following logo -

The descriptions for these caches have been written for following the Way from Cambus O May to Ballater but the Way can be followed in either direction.
These caches have been placed by the kind permission of Aberdeenshire Council. All the caches can be accessed from the Deeside Way and surrounding verges and there is no need to climb over any fences.
It is strongly recommended that you do not park on the A93 which is a busy trunk road. There is good parking near the suspension bridge in Cambus O May and in Ballater. There is a good bus service along the A93 with generally an hourly service.
There are some excellent views of the Cairngorm Mountains as you walk or cycle west along the Way and here is an especially good view of Lochnagar (1155 metres). There is an information board nearby.
