Well, try the A93 from the "Granite City" of Aberdeen to the "Fair City" of Perth, two of Scotland's oldest and grandest Royal Burghs.This is not the route that the Roman XX Valeria Vitrix legion would have chosen to advance from its Tayside fortress at Inchtuthil to the wild north-east - after all, this was distinctly hostile territory - and neither is it the most direct route today.The English Redcoats built a military road north from Blairgowrie to the re-fortified Braemar and Corgarff Castles during the Jacobite rebellion and, during the last century, the coming of the railway to Royal Deeside (ironically, for a Great Drive) saw the road route to Aberdeen completed.And what a glorious drive it is. The journey is suburban to Peterculter, but then you enter open countryside. This is the land of unique recumbent stone circles, motte and bailey castles some 500 miles off their usual territory and Scotland's renowned tower-houses.You soon reach Drum Castle, whose late-13th century tower-house is the oldest in Scotland, though today it combines the stark fortress with the splendour of a grand country house.

A few miles farther west is Crathes Castle, a tower-house bristling with Scottish baronial splendour. The most fairytale of the lot, Craigievar Castle, is north along the A980.Until Banchory, the road winds alongside the Dee and the now-closed railway. Thereafter, the gentle, almost imperceptible climb westwards, through Aboyne, gets you in the mood for the driving and the views to come before you enter Ballater, a resort and terminus of the old railway. From here on, the menacing mountains to the north and south close in.After winding past Crathie, with the Balmoral estate to the south, the Old Military Road from Corgarff joins on its way south. By this stage, the Dee is hemmed in by the mountains and the A93 clings to the north bank. Then, just before the A93 turns due south, there stands Braemar Castle above the confluence of the Rivers Dee and Clunie, strategically sited to control the glens. Like many tower-houses, Braemar has an eventful past. It was built in about 1620, set ablaze in 1689 and the Jacobite flag was raised there in 1715.

After the Battle of Culloden, it was occupied by government troops who built the star-shaped curtain wall - Redcoats could never feel safe hereabouts.South of Braemar you follow the Old Military Road up Glen Clunie to the Cairnwell Pass: at 2,199ft, this is the highest main road in Britain and used to be a challenge for car and driver. The descent is now rather easier - the tortuous Devil's Elbow bends have been bypassed - but descending Glen Beag is still spectacular. All too soon, you enter Glen Shee and leave the wild drama behind, but there is much more challenging driving to come.The occasional prehistoric standing stone, burial cairn or hut circle shows that man has always occupied lower Glen Shee. After crossing the River Ericht in Blairgowrie, the A93 continues in a south-westerly direction. Just before the A984, the woods conceal the bank and ditches of the 1.5-mile long, Neolithic processional way called the Cleaven Dyke.Farther west along the A984, scant earthworks are all that remain of Inchtuthil, the most northerly legionary fortress in the Roman Empire.

This was probably not a plum posting.Now the A93 follows the River Tay, though at a distance, and to the south-east rise the Braes of the Carse hills, complete with Dunsinane hillfort, traditionally the site of Macbeth's castle. For those with a Shakespearean interest, Birnam Wood is 15 miles north of Perth along the A9. Before arriving at the one-time capital of Scotland, when Perth was called St Johnstoun, you pass through Old Scone, with its palace and the stone of destiny that once resided in Westminster Abbey.The "Fair City" of Perth is not exactly an apt title. Scotland's King James I was murdered in the Blackfriars monastery and a century later, in 1559, John Knox delivered his "vehement against idolatry" sermon that sparked the riotous destruction of many Roman Catholic monasteries.
