Bennachie
Today we climbed Bennachie (a range of hills in Aberdeenshire) to the top of the most prominent peak, Mither Tap (518 m, 1699 feet). It took around 1 hour and 45 minutes to walk up and 45 minutes to walk back down. We had plenty of stops for rests! The boys were troopers! Closer to the top it was very rough, steep, rugged, cold and windy but we all made it to the top!! It had beautiful views of the county to the north and east.
