Ballater is a picturesque village in the heart of Royal Deeside. Surrounded by the glorious countryside of the Cairngorms National Park and situated on the banks of the River Dee, Ballater is 43 miles (69 km) west of Aberdeen and 8 miles (13 km) from Balmoral Castle. Ballater is renowned for its royal connections and has many shops and businesses displaying the Royal warrants of the Queen and Prince Charles.
This web site is sponsored by the Ballater Business Association and since first appearing in 2007, we’ve developed it into the informational site that you see here today. We recently added weather information and links to Victoria Week and the famous Ballater Eagle!
The events page, in particular, is now being updated several times a week in the hope of providing the best source of information to our visitors and local residents of all ages and interests. There will be many additions and changes to the site during 2008, so come back soon!
The members of the Ballater Business Association welcome you to Ballater,
“The Jewel of the Cairngorms”!
