Cairngorms & Speyside, Scotland

1 itinerary · 0 open departures · 0 missions

The Cairngorms is the UK's largest national park, covering a vast plateau of ancient mountains, pine forests, and river valleys in the Scottish Highlands. It's home to some of Britain's highest peaks, rare wildlife such as red squirrels, ospreys, and red deer, and year-round outdoor pursuits including hiking, mountain biking, skiing at Cairn Gorm Mountain, and wild swimming. Speyside, threading through the heart of the park, is Scotland's whisky country — the River Spey valley is lined with more distilleries than anywhere else in the world, drawing enthusiasts along the famous Malt Whisky Trail. Together, the two make a popular destination for adventurers and slow travellers alike.
