Tarland is a small village in Aberdeenshire, north‑east Scotland, set among rolling farmland and heather‑clad hills on the fringe of the Grampian Mountains. The landscape has a strong outdoor appeal - good walking, wildlife spotting and sweeping upland views - and the surrounding hills bear traces of long occupation, giving the area a quietly ancient feel.
Locally the economy centres on agriculture, forestry and small‑scale tourism, and the village retains an active community life with a village hall, local groups and regular events. There are also a number of historic and prehistoric sites in the wider locality, while larger service centres such as Banchory and Aberdeen are within easy reach.
