Default Where in Aberdeen...

do you think you get the best view of the city?

I'm trying to find a location for something, and I'm stumped!

It's difficult as I don't think that there is a hill which gives an overall view.

I think that the Northfield Tower gives a decent view of the North of the city.

The Broadhill beside Pittodrie might be good

Lighthouse or the Torry Battery?

The view as you come down the last part of the dual carriageway from Stonie is also pretty immense, you can actually see the entire city as you drive in... pretty cool.

There's an amazing view from the Hazelhead 2 golf course - round about the 15th hole or so (not sure exactly).

Also, the 17th hole on Balnagask gives a great view over the harbour & beach.
