- Admire the splendid isolation of the castle, which is situated at the head of remote Strathdon
- Check out the star-shaped perimeter wall – the castle’s most distinctive feature was added when it became a military base
- Visit the reconstructed barrack rooms to imagine being stationed here in 1750 as a Redcoat from Pulteney’s 13th Foot regiment
