A drive south west takes you to the mighty Bennachie.  There is a visitors centre at the bottom of the hill with a car park.  If you're feeling energetic the shortest and steepest route to the top takes about one hour, but it's well worth it, what a view!  At the top you can see the volcanic formations and also the remains of a Pict fort.  If you're interested in more of the history of this part of the country visit Archeolink which is situated on the north side of Bennachie 2 miles of the A96 on the B9002.
