Grampian Mountains of Scotland
The local government region of Scotland of Grampian existed from 1975 to 1996 and nowadays it is divided into three separate unitary council regions called Aberdeenshire, The City of Aberdeen and of course Moray. This wonderful county has local areas comprising of the six districts of Aberdeen, Banff and Buchan, Deeside, Gordon, Moray and Kincardine. This region got the county name from the magnificent local Grampian Mountains.

Annual games occur here and the winner is the one who defeats all competitors overall to become "The Grampian Champion" in this area.
