Balmoral Estate is approximately 50 miles west of Aberdeen, just off the A93 in scenic Royal Deeside. It lies midway between Ballater and Braemar and can be reached from the South using the A93 (Deeside Tourist Route) via Perth and Glenshee

Aberdeen Airport also accommodates excellent UK connections with the mainline railway station enabling good access from throughout the country. There are also good bus services from the city of Aberdeen to Deeside and Balmoral.

The organisers have arranged for competitors' family and friends to receive free entry to the Balmoral Estate on race day, so why not make a holiday of it and spend the weekend in Deeside - surely one of the most spectacularly beautiful regions of Europe? Several thousand visitors are expected on that day.
