Weitere Informationen:
Portknockie has a lot to offer to visitors. It is a place to stop for spectacular views over the Moray Firth and its busy traffic of fishing boats, oil/gas rigs and passing bottle-nosed dolphins. The signature feature along the cliff tops is the famous Bow Fiddle Rock, a wave-cut natural arch, which provides a dramatic roosting place for gulls and cormorants. There are pleasant cliff walks to the adjoining villages of Cullen and Findochty and the coastal heath on the cliffs offers frequent sightings of larks, yellowhammers, stone chats and other bird life. South of Portknockie the Bin Hill rises to 320 m and offers a commanding view point for the Moray coastline. The Aberdeen and Inverness cycle path passes through the village and down the length of the old railway line closed in 1968. GPAN 0068
