The monarch spends summertime in Scotland
The announcement was accompanied by a beautiful picture of the castle which showcased the stone stairway leading up to the dramatic building.
The reason the monarch's Scottish home closes to the public in the summer is because the Queen herself will relocate to the castle over the coming months.
The Balmoral estate is where the royal family can relax away from their usual royal duties and enjoy the quieter life in the countryside.
The Queen usually starts her summer holiday in mid-July, but while the main castle is officially open to tourists until August, she stays in a seven-bedroom stone house on her estate, Craigowan Lodge.
She then moves into the big house in August and usually stays in Scotland until September/October time.
The estate holds lots of memories for the Queen
It's likely that the monarch will be joined by various members of the royal family over the course of the summer, including the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge along with their three children.
Princess Eugenie is another member of the family who may make an appearance at the Scottish estate. Speaking on ITV's Our Queen At Ninety, the Queen's granddaughter previously explained: "It's the most beautiful place on earth. I think Granny is the most happy there. I think she really, really loves the Highlands."
