Car parking for Saturdays Glen Dye run is near Spital Cottage (ruin), and not the usual car park for Clachnaben. The grid ref is NO 64568 84398, and it's a little over 2km South of the usual Quarry Carpark. Coming from the Banchory end of the Military road you'll cross the small bridge and then see a track dropping down to the river on your right hand side. The tracks a little rutted at the top, but smooths out after a few metres. Follow the track down and there's usually plenty of parking at the bottom. Suggest heading up Glen Dye and up to Mount Battock from the head of the Glen From there head back along the ridge towards Clachnaben. Folk can either do the full ridge, or escape back down into Glen Dye half way along the ridge. The only down side is that Glen Dye is a shooting estate and most of this run will be on broad access tracks with very little "off-piste".
