Cairngorms National Park

A vast natural reserve in the Scottish Highlands, renowned for its rugged landscapes, mountain ranges, and rich wildlife, including golden eagles.

Tips from the community

In a country so replete with natural wonders that make you want to yell ‘och, aye!’, the Cairngorms remain a true standout. They occupy a huge cut-out of the Highlands, counting a whopping 1,748 square miles of sculpted mountain terrain. There’s a muscle-spraining 55 Munros (mountains above 3,000 feet) to get through for ramblers, not to mention one of the UK’s few ski resorts at Glenshee. The town of Aviemore is for access and it’s got all the boot shops and hearty Scottish pubs you could want.
