# Cairngorms National Park

> Cairngorms National Park Authority Home to some of Britain's most loved, but endangered species. Enjoy a gentle ramble or a challenging walk, both with the most rewarding of views.

The mighty Cairngorms National Park, in the heart of the Scottish Highlands, is the UK's biggest National Park - twice the size of the Lake District - and is world-renowned for its incredible landscapes and breathtaking scenery, with huge mountains, vast Caledonian pine forests, rivers and lochs. Winter months in the Cairngorms usually mean hefty snowfall, and this attracts people from far and wide for skiing, snowboarding and many other snow-based sports. Head to Aviemore as a base if you want to be at the centre of the action in the most extensive range of arctic mountain landscape in the British Isles, and here you can book all the activities you could possibly imagine. Aviemore can be busy all year round, but you're never far away from the wilderness, and whether it is summer or winter, you can choose to hike, bike, canoe or climb your way across the Park; there is something for everyone. The Cairngorms is an amazing place to spot wildlife too, especially rare breeds, as it is home to a quarter of the UK's most endangered species. Keep your eyes peeled for golden eagles, wildcats, voles, otters and red squirrels amongst other things; there are nine nature reserve across the Cairngorms National Park which all protect this incredible array of wildlife, and if you think you might need some help, book a guide who will be on hand to point things out! Stunning scenery aside, the Cairngorms is also home to ancient fortresses, distilleries museums and other attractions so when you visit here, leave enough time to explore this unforgettable National Park.
