Nine Stanes Stone Circle

Reviewed By m_ireq - Banchory, United Kingdom

Well preserved circle with a recumbent stone, and a stunning view of the surrounding hills and forests. We noticed that the stones near the recumbent stone contained veins of quartz which was fascinating. It is unfortunate that one hillside nearby had been stripped of all trees, which was a bit harsh and distracting. Otherwise it was like going back in time.
