Land Watch at Broughty Castle

Broughty Castle Broughty Ferry, Dundee

Join Laura for an organised landwatch from Broughty Castle. This year Laura has partnered up with Leisure & Culture Dundee and Historic Environment Scotland to bring four watches to National Whale and Dolphin Watch. Laura will be based inside the walls of the castle at a highpoint with an excellent view of the whole of the Tay Estuary. There is no charge to enter the castle or the grounds and if they wish, people can enjoy a visit to the free museum while there. For information - unfortunately, being an historic building, access inside Brougty Castle is via a steep winding staircase and therefor may not be accessible to all. The grounds are a bit better but would definitely still present a challenge to those with limited mobility. For more information please contact countryside.rangers@dundeecity.gov.uk
