About Aberdeen Crematorium
Aberdeen Crematorium stands in the Hazlehead area of the city, surrounded by mature woodland that provides a naturally peaceful atmosphere for those attending services. The crematorium's location amongst established trees creates a sense of quiet dignity, whilst remaining easily accessible from Aberdeen's main routes. The grounds offer families a contemplative space where they can gather before and after services, with the surrounding greenery helping to soften what can be a difficult day.
The crematorium's position in the western part of Aberdeen means you'll find yourself well-placed for travelling to various wake venues across the city afterwards. Most family gatherings take place within a twenty-minute drive, whether you're heading towards the city centre, nearby residential areas, or community halls. The location works well for relatives of varying mobility, with good road connections that avoid the busiest city centre traffic. Do allow a little extra time if older family members are travelling with you, as the approach roads can be quieter and more winding than main city routes.
