How much can you fit into a day at Cairngorm Mountain Resort?
⛰️
Cairngorm Mountain is open again, and there’s a LOT more to do than simply take in the view!
🚲
Ride the funicular, fly down the mountain on a gravity-fuelled mountain cart, hit the mountain bike trails, have a go on the tubing slides or let the kids loose in the Adventure Play Park.
🧗‍♀️
You can also slow things down with a wander through the Mountain Garden, head up to the Ptarmigan for something to eat and drink, and of course take in those huge Cairngorm views.
☕️
There’s still time to pack plenty of mountain adventure into the last weeks of summer.

Looking for a magical steam* train experience in Scotland this summer? Step aboard the Strathspey Railway in the heart of the Cairngorms and enjoy a nostalgic journey through beautiful Highland scenery aboard our heritage trains.

Departing from Aviemore station, Strathspey Railway offers traditional heritage carriage travel, panoramic Observation Carriage views and elegant Afternoon “Steam” Tea experiences, upgrades with Prosecco available!

Fans of wizarding adventures may also recognise Aviemore station from Harry Potter and the Cursed Child. In the playscript, Albus Potter and Scorpius Malfoy flee Hogwarts on foot and arrive at Aviemore station by morning, meaning Hogwarts must be hidden somewhere nearby in the Highlands…
