When you’re not orienteering, there are many local cultural and historical attractions as well as outdoor activities in the area. There are castles from Braemar in the west to Dunnottar on the coast, Lochnagar and many other Munros to climb, as well distilleries to visit, golf courses to play on, and wildlife to watch. There is lots to keep every member of the family entertained!

We look forward to welcoming you to Desside 2025 for a week-long orienteering and holiday experience, all within about 15 miles of Forres.
