Ballater Walking Festival

Yesterday we were leading a walk for the Ballater Walking Festival. Here we are at the start point, at the Old Brig o' Dee, near Braemar. We had a lovely walk and managed not to lose anyone en route!

How long a walk?

What a lovely group to be walking with, beautiful shot and scene.

@lifeat60degrees Not very long - a 'moderate' walk for the very mixed group. 13km. Up Glen Beg over to Loch Phadruig and down to Auchallater, where the bus picked us up.

Nice looking group, I’m glad you all had a nice walk

[Valerie Chesney]

They are all happily ready for their moderate walk. Looks a great day to be out.

[Babs]

What a lovely group shot. Always good to go out with a walking group on a nice day.

Fabulous group shot with the bridge & mountains in the background. Hope all enjoyed the walk

[Taffy]

I like the positive feelings that everyone seems to be conveying. Walking with friends in a beautiful setting — as good as it gets! As an aside, the street I lived on as a teenager was Braemar!

[Hazel]

A great shot of your group of intrepid explorers!

[Judith Johnson]

Well done you. It looks like a big crowd

[KWind]

I bet it was fun! Love the background bridge.

[Margaret Brown]

A lovely group capture, a nice day for a walk

[Pat Knowles]

A lovely group of intrepid walkers….all smiling & enjoying the lovely scenery. The best way to enjoy a walk. I would have thought nothing if walking that distance last year but I’m having trouble with tendinitis in my hips….it’s very annoying !

What a wonderful idea! Great scene and group portrait.

[Shutterbug]

Beautiful group shot.

[Kathy]

You had a good sized group. Not too many and not too few.

[Ann H. LeFevre]

Looks like a good gathering and sounds like a nice walk. The surroundings are beautiful!

@taffy I love the name Braemar. You were lucky!!!
