Inverurie is a market town in Aberdeenshire, Scotland, sitting on the River Ury close to where it joins the River Don. It lies in the gently rolling farming country of the Garioch, with the distinctive ridge of Bennachie to the west and Aberdeen a short commute to the east, so it combines a rural setting with good transport links.
The town has medieval roots and grew around its market and later the railways, then expanded again with North Sea oil-era commuting; today it retains a lively high street, agricultural connections, independent businesses and a strong community feel. Local points of interest include the popular hill walks on Bennachie and a proud sporting scene centred on clubs such as Inverurie Loco Works FC, alongside historic buildings and regular local events.
