==Course of the river== The Don rises in the peat flat beneath ''Druim na Feithe'', and in the shadow of [[River Avon (Strathspey)|Glen Avon]], before flowing quietly past the ice-age [[moraine]] and down to Cock Bridge, below the picturesque site of the recently demolished [[Delnadamph Lodge]]. Several streams, the Dhiver, Feith Bhait, Meoir Veannaich, Cock Burn and the Allt nan Aighean merge to form the embryonic Don. Water from the north of Brown Cow Hill ({{gbmapping|NJ230045}}) drains into the Don, while water from the west side runs into the [[River Spey]] and that from the south side into the [[River Dee, Aberdeenshire|Dee]]. The Don follows a circuitous route eastwards past [[Corgarff Castle]], through [[Strathdon]] and the [[Howe of Alford]] before entering the North Sea just north of [[Old Aberdeen]]. The chief tributaries are [[Conrie Water]], [[Ernan Water]], Water of Carvie, Water of Nochty, Deskry Water, Water of Buchat, Kindy Burn, [[Bucks Burn]], Mossat Burn, Leochel Burn and the [[River Ury]].
