Creative assets to promote Aberdeen, Inverness and the north of Scotland in autumn and winter

Balmoral Castle

Home to the Cairngorms National Park and Royal Deeside, Autumn is one of the most spectacular times to visit Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire. Enjoy granite architecture, ancient castles and stunning scenery under a blanket of fallen leaves and alive with autumnal colours. Winter offers an enchanting escape as the region is blanketed in crunchy snow. The Christmas Village brings sparkle to the Granite City and the region offers a winter wonderland of fairy-tale castles. Get cosy in a log cabin or boutique city hotel, and keep an eye out for the Northern Lights.

Take an autumn getaway to Inverness and Loch Ness to admire the beautiful landscapes explode into burnt oranges and golden yellows. Explore the scenery on foot, by bike or on a scenic drive. Break out of hibernation and visit in the winter months. The short days make way for the clearest starry skies, and a chance to catch the Northern Lights. Get outside to unwind in the fresh air or retreat to a cosy lodge, friendly B&B or boutique hotel to coorie in. Enjoy the regions seasonal menus, from warming soups and freshly baked scones, to fine dining experiences and whisky tasting.
