Heading along Scotland's northeast coast not far north of Montrose you'll find one of Scotland's most beautiful nature reserves and beaches. St Cyrus, which surrounds the Aberdeenshire village of the same name, stretches for miles and offers sand dunes, grassland, golden beaches and epic views aplenty.
Incredibly, there is another even more stunning sight not far from the northern tip of the beach that not many people will know about – especially those not local to the area.
The Den of Finella is a magical gorge and waterfall that really has to be seen to be believed; a natural wonder, it's steeped in mystery and folklore with the tale of a daring escape tied to the murder of one of Scotland's earliest kings.
