Newest Review: ... is accessible from every corner. With car parks at the lower and top ends of the park, you never have to worry about having to walk too far. There are plenty paths to enter the park that are only accessible by foot, bicycle, scooter etc. These are evenly spread all around the park so even though the park covers a large area, you don't have to walk a mile round the outside to get into ... more

Duthie Park. A place I basically lived in as a child. Now I'm older (not much older mind you), I'm still there all the time, just not for the see-saw. Some people forget that parks aren't just for children. They forget that parks are in fact beautiful places that anyone can enjoy. Duthie Park is definitely one of those parks. Duthie Park is situated very near the centre of of the city, just a 5-10 minute brisk walk from the centre of town, it is easily accessible from all areas in Aberdeen so no one has to miss out or travel very far. Luckily, it only takes me 15 minutes to walk there, so I can enjoy the beauty anytime I wish but now I'm just ... Read the complete review

Duthie Park is one of Aberdeen's main attractions. It is located beside the River Dee, on the way into the city from the south, on Riverside Drive although the official address is Polmuir Road, which is tucked away at the rear of the park. The main car park can be accessed from Riverside Drive. You can also catch the number 17 or 21 bus from the city centre to the park. The park covers 44 acres, and includes lots of things to see and do. It opened in the later part of the nineteenth century, and remains a favourite with locals all year round, but especially in summertime. Beside the main car park you will find one of the two childrens playparks. The ... Read the complete review

Since moving to Aberdeen a few years ago, I have many times visited if not just passing through, the Duthie Park. It is a place all the locals have been to at least once, and is a strong attraction for visitors to Granite City! Location: The Duthie Park is situated just off of Garthdee in the city of Aberdeen, Scotland. Surrounding the park there are various main roads, with an Asda, a B&Q, and a ski slope near by, not forgetting the university campus too. It's also around ten minutes from the centre of town too, so there are plenty surrounding the beautiful park should you want to wander! Accessibility: As I said, there are ...
