I will start with the quiet end of Bennachie (Hermit Seat and Watch Craig, possibly onwards to Oxen Craig and Craigshannoch, if not busy). I will stay away from Mither Tap, as that closest to the main car park and is likely to be crawling with visitors from Aberdeen. Once I have my hill fitness back, I would head down to Loch Muick for a walk up Lochnagar, assuming my long term injuries stay quiet.
