Scroll down to plan your perfect winter break to the Cairngorms today…

The Cairngorms were built on winter experiences, home to three of Scotland’s ski centres, we are the UK’s original winter destination. Often snow-covered landscapes and quaint villages spread across the Cairngorms, all living and embracing their best winter lives. Visit the Cairngorms and enjoy a real winter break with us this year.

Whether you want to dive into winter with high energy and excitement like a metaphorical luge or stroll at glacier speed through our snowglobe landscapes. Enjoy adventures at your own pace and chill out at the end of the day in front of a cosy crackling fire and bathe in the winter vibes, toasting a glass with loved ones. There’s something here for everyone to make your winter memorable. 

Wintertime is when the Cairngorms is at its most magical. This winter, explore the enchanting settings, playful activities and cosy hospitality of our National Park. The Cairngorms really is – ‘Where Winter Comes to Life!’

Winter Travel

Some like salt in their chocolate, we love salt on our roads, check out the gritter map (some laughter-inducing names!) and webcams to help plan your journey. We’ve been living a winter life for generations, we don’t hibernate but we do take care, our roads are cared for and treated by a team of winter fairies.

Being prepared for a winter journey is very important, check Traffic Scotland for tips in preparing for winter travel. From the benefits of winter tyres, to packing a winter emergency kit, to general advice about driving in icy conditions – there is lots of information to help you prepare and keep safe whatever the weather.
