The Tourist Season in Scotland: The Falls of Muick, five miles from Ballater, 1881. 'Deeside, in Aberdeenshire, the Queen's favourite autumn residence, will be sure, as usual, to attract many visitors during this season...Here is the entrance to Glen Muick, a romantic valley traversed by the linn or small river bearing that name, which descends from the back of the mountain called Lochnagar, celebrated by some verses of Byron's...The Linn of Muick, with the Loch of Muick in its upper course, and with the Dhu Loch still higher up, surrounded by dark precipitous rocks, has very often been resorted to by the Queen and the Royal family, in their short excursions of one day from Balmoral...The Falls of the Muick, lower down the glen, are represented in one of our Engravings this week. Her Majesty, speaking of the stream, remarks that it "falls in the most beautiful way, over the rocks and stones in the glen".' From "Illustrated London News", 1881.
