The GO Guide to Cairngorms National Park 
Situated in the north east of Scotland, the Cairngorms National Park is one of the most picturesque parts of Britain with hills, valleys and rolling countryside as far as the eye can see. With snow-topped peaks in the winter and fabulous views to take in from Ben Macdui, the second-highest mountain in the UK and some of the cleanest water in Scotland, this relatively new national park has something for every keen explorer.
Officially opened in 2003 by the Scottish Parliament, the Cairngorms National Park has become one of the most popular British tourist destinations; attracting walkers, cyclists, climbers and even skiers from all over the UK.
