Formartine and Buchan Way

The Formartine and Buchan Way is a 54 mile offroad route linking Dyce with Ellon, Maud, Fraserburgh and Peterhead using the level trackbed of a former railway line through rolling farmland. The nature of the F&B Way makes it an ideal recreational and commuting route between the various towns and villages located along its length.

Missing Section

There is currently a section between Maud and Bruckley Bridge (grid ref. NJ927483 to NJ 926505)that is unsurfaced and so there is a diversion in place using the B9106 and A950. The diversion is on public road and so is unsuitable for inexperienced cyclists and young children.

Most sections are available for horseriding and some sections are wheelchair-accessible for more information- tel: 01467 628380.

The route also acts as a wildlife corridor and so there is plenty to see along the route throught the year.
