Loch an Eilein

Hidden in the forest of Rothiemurchus, this beautiful place is one of the most loved in the UK. Loch an Eilein (loch of the island) with its 13th century island castle, was voted Britain's Best Picnic Spot. Step back in time and retrace the steps of the Highland cattle raiders as you enjoy views of the dramatic and mysterious Highland castle and enjoy the exceptional wildlife of this forest particularly the Red Squirrels and Scottish Crossbills. You can enjoy some of the best low level walking in Scotland. Sheltered by ancient pine trees with views of the mountains, the path around the loch is suitable for motorised wheel chairs, off road buggies and is part of the Rothiemurchus way marked network of paths.

I have visited Loch an Eilein duering visit Highland and stay days in Aviemore. And I was been realy exciting. Beautiful romantic walk round Loch an Eilein is in the centrum of the Rothiemurchus Forest with the view of a ruined castle on a little island in the loch. I’ll never forget time spent there.

Cairngorm Reindeer Herd

The hills are turning green, the sun is mostly shining and spring is here to stay! Take a visit to see Britain’s only free-ranging herd of reindeer in their natural habitat. May is an exciting time for us reindeer herders as antlers are beginning to grow and it is calving season! From May, Trips go daily at 11am and 2.30pm - follow a reindeer herder as you make your way up to the mountain enclosure & walk amongst reindeer as the herder tells you more about them. Situated in the Centre of the Cairngorms National Park, you will also enjoy beautiful views of the mountains. The walk takes around 20 mins each way & will cross some rough and muddy ground on the mountainside so make sure you’ve got sturdy footwear & nice cosy layers, plus waterproofs! Please make sure you book online via our website (up to 30 days ahead) and arrive in good time for your chosen visit. For those less able, from Easter, you can visit a small group of reindeer in the Paddock & Exhibition at the Centre.

Had a fantastic visit taking the hill walk up to see and feed the reindeer - it’s well worth the effort to climb up the hill and it was truly remarkable and I’d recommend it to anyone able.

We wanted to take our teens to the tubing run, but not being familiar with the area, had no idea where to find it, other than the Cairngorm Ski Area which our sat nav refused to find. For the benefit of other non-locals, follow the Old Logging Way past Loch Morlich and the Reindeer Centre, beyond the Sugar Bowl car park and on a short distance to Coire Cas car park. This is the base station of the ski area and we found that putting Cairngorm Mountain Railway in the sat nav (even though it’s not been running a while) got us there. Tubing is in the base station area, opposite the Ranger Station. It is open from 10am and costs £6 per tube for a 45 minute session. It is £20 for a family of four - buy your tickets in the shop. What fantastic fun. The two guys pushing you off at the top were so nice - they must have been exhausted giving everyone a push off and all the time with such enthusiasm. It really came over that they wanted every single rider to have a fantastic and memorable time. Our 16,14 and 9 year olds loved it (9 year old moaned a bit about having to lug her tube up a few flights of steps back to the top each time). We were all pretty tired after 45 minutes. Up to the cafe for a nice lunch (mac n cheese, burger, chilli beef wrap and fish pie), open fire, and live ceilidh music. Can’t beat it! To check that things are running, keep up to speed with the Cairngorm Mountain Facebook page.
