Echt, Aberdeenshire

Echt (Scottish Gaelic: Eicht) is a crossroads village in Aberdeenshire, Scotland. Echt has a number of prehistoric remains, including the Barmekin of Echt, a prehistoric hillfort on a hill to the northwest. There is also the Cullerlie stone circle near Sunhoney Farm, which may date from the Bronze Age.

Echt contains a church, a village shop and post office, a restaurant (Echt Tandoori), and a pleasure park with a children's play area. Local football matches are also held there. The annual Echt Show, a farmers' show, is held on the second Saturday in July.

It is centred on the junction of the B977 Dunecht to Banchory road and the B9119 Kingsford to Ordie road. It is some 12+1⁄2 miles (20.1 km) from the city of Aberdeen.
