Things to Do
When not orienteering

Things to do in Edinburgh

See the stars at a Royal Observatory public observation evening.
Buy some cheese at Mellis cheesemongers.

Things to do on Deeside.
Hike a Munro, one of Scotland's 282 3000'+ mountains. The Cairnwell in Glenshee is probably the easiest, Lochnagar one of the most spectacular, or for an epic all day hike take yourself in to Ben Avon.
Visit a distillery: the definitive Scottish experience. Or take a day on the world's only distillery trail
The Dee stretches 60 beautiful miles from its source at Linn of Dee to Aberdeen, go fishing, canoe, cycle Deeside on or off road.
