The majestic peaks, hidden lochs, and whispering forests of the Cairngorms National Park are calling, and we at Cairngorm Excursions are thrilled to announce an exciting new chapter in how you can experience their unparalleled beauty. We’ve joined forces with the renowned and deeply knowledgeable mountain guides at Hillgoers to launch a series of guided walking tours for summer 2025!

For those who yearn to explore and  delve deeper into the heart of this incredible landscape with confidence and insight, this Spring/Summer 2025 collaboration was a game-changer. Hillgoers brought a wealth of experience, expertise, and a genuine passion for the Scottish mountains.

Envision discovering the hidden gem of the Burn o’Vat in the Muir of Dinnet, with an expert explaining its fascinating glacial formation.
