Derry Lodge, from the Linn of Dee & the perfect wild camp!
We were so fortunate to get it in snow and non-snow conditions on this wee wild camp.
This walk from the Linn of Dee follows Glen Lui as far as Derry Lodge, an imposing but disused shooting lodge in a beautiful pinewood with great views of the Cairngorm mountains. This out-and-back route gives open vistas and pinewoods with a taste of the wild Cairngorms, yet backed by the ease and safety of a clear vehicle track to follow.
