Aberdeenshire is home to some of Scotland's top attractions and most stunning natural sights, from Dunnottar Castle to Loch Muick.
One destination that you may not have heard of, but that has a fascinating history, is Burn O'Vat — a pothole close to Loch Kinord near the village of Dinnet.
Journeying back nearly 16,000 years ago, the surrounding area was covered by a glacial ice sheet. A few thousand years later, the ice began to melt.
