We highly recommend walking to the Castle from the nearby town of Stonehaven as the route is picturesque, interesting and good for your health! Leaving from Market Square in the centre of town follow Allardice Street to the south to the bend onto Dunnottar Avenue (there’s a police station at the end) and either follow the little brown signs directing you to Dunnottar along various little side paths or continue on to Dunnottar Avenue to the foot of the Bervie Braes.
