Destination: Cairngorms
A beach-and-forest holiday in the Highlands, with one pitch for more than one night.Good for: Good for families who want activities and short outings; several lower-level alternatives to exposed hill routes.The compromise: The drive north is substantial, and a forest base does not make the mountain plateau an easy walk. Some familiar blog routes are currently closed.The October 2026 forestry alert reports wildfire-related closures affecting Ryvoan Pass and An Lochan Uaine. Do not use an older walking account as evidence that those paths are open. High roads and exposed walks need a separate weather decision.Read the full Cairngorms campervan guide
