Section 8: The Cairngorms
The Cairngorms forms the largest area of upland sub-arctic in Great Britain. This unique area is divided into three main massifs by two major and well known passes - the Lairig Ghru and Lairig an Laoigh, which go north to south across the range through glacially-carved valleys. This is a wild, fascinating and remote area with wide spaces, founded on hard Scottish granite and characterised by stony tundra, long glacially carved lochs and craggy peaks.
