Aviemore & Cairngorms National Park
An Aghaidh Mhòr
Gateway town to Cairngorms National Park, Britain's largest, and an outdoor-sports hub with lochs, pine forests, reindeer and steam trains nearby.
An Aghaidh Mhòr lies in the Spey Valley, about 40 minutes by train or car from Inverness, and is the visitor hub of Cairngorms National Park. At roughly 4,500 square kilometres, the park is the largest in Britain, home to ancient Caledonian pine forests and vast stretches of high-altitude tundra. The main street is lined with outdoor outfitters, pubs and restaurants. Nearby attractions include Loch Morlich, Loch an Eilein, the Reindeer Centre, the Cairn Gorm Mountain Funicular, and the Speyside whisky-producing region.
