Getting Here

Two places
to find.

Most folk who got lost last year were looking for the wrong one. The festival is in the park. The ride-out starts at the castle.

The two locations

The park,
and the castle.

Getting to Brechin

However you travel

By car

Off the A90

Blue badge

Near the entrance

Ask a marshal on the way in.

By bus

The Ember bus

Ember runs into Brechin and is the easiest way in without a car.

By train

Montrose

Brechin has no mainline station — Montrose is the nearest, then a bus.

Parking

Where to
leave the car.

Dedicated bike and trike parking, with marshals directing riders where to park.

Car parking around the park is limited and has never been ticketed — come early if you can. The woodyard car park is cut off at the moment because the bridge is closed, so you would need to come round another way.

On the day

Accessibility

Ground

Grass, and a park

Flat, but it is grass — a wheelchair or a pushchair will manage in the dry.

Toilets

Accessible toilets

On site all day.

Seating

Bring a chair

There is no seating laid on, so bring one if you need one.
