Cairngorm Mountain
Recommended by
Overview
Cairngorm is the UK's sixth highest mountain, and is also home to the UK's highest funicular railway, which takes visitors on a spectacular 2km journey to just below the summit of Cairngorm. Visitors are not able to exit at the top station unless booked on a guided walking experience. As well as 30km of pisted runs and 11 ski lifts that operate during the winter, there are also a large number of walking opportunities and many events during months when there are no snow sports scheduled.

About the area
Apart from the Orkneys and the Shetlands, Highland is Scotland’s northernmost county. Probably its most famous feature is the mysterious and evocative Loch Ness, allegedly home to an ancient monster that has embedded itself in the world’s modern mythology, and the region’s tourist industry.
