The Durris Forest includes several smaller named woodlands.〔(Scotland Forestry Commission: Durris Forest )〕 The ancient route of Elsick Mounth crosses the Grampian Mounth within the Durris Forest. Notable natural features in the vicinity include Red Moss and Meikle Carewe Hill. Notable historic features in this area include Raedykes Roman Camp, Muchalls Castle and Maryculter House. ==History== Roman legions marched from Raedykes to Normandykes Roman Camp through the Durris Forest as they sought higher ground evading the bogs of Red Moss and other low-lying mosses associated with the Burn of Muchalls. That march used the Elsick Mounth, one of the ancient trackways crossing the Mounth of the Grampian Mountains,〔(C. Michael Hogan, ''Elsick Mounth'', Megalithic Portal, editor: Andy Burnham )〕 lying west of Netherley.
