Best Log Cabins in Ben Lawers National Nature Reserve

Managed by the National Trust for Scotland, the Ben Lawers National Nature Reserve is home to the highest mountain in the central Highlands. Measuring 3,980 feet, Ben Lawers is the reserve’s centerpoint but not the only draw for climbers and walkers as there are seven Munros here (mountains measuring over 3,000 feet. Nature lovers will also love seeing its arctic-alpine flora, which includes many rare and endangered species and more than 600 types of lichen, and can spot wildlife such as red deer, black grouse, and ptarmigan. While there are no campsites in the park, a number of caravan parks and campsites can be found just outside the entrance.

3 nights at St Conan's Escape

St. Conan's Escape was such a beautiful area to disappear into! The property manager, Hazel, did such a phenomenal job of preparing the space--it was so beautifully-decorated and clearly well-maintained that I could see this as the perfect experience for other solo travelers or couples looking for a beautiful location to sink into. I found St. Conan's Escape when looking for a place to go off-grid for a couple of days in the midst of traveling, and it had everything I needed--all of the amenities including plenty of cookware, a bathroom and extremely comfortable bed, so that I could focus on my writing projects. What a beautiful scenery it's in, too! I woke up to a beautiful sunrise over the mountains in the distance and I was so sad to leave such a majestic view. I would absolutely return and recommend it to anyone looking for a new experience!

Weekend Trip to Muiredge

We loved the cabin. Spacious and we slept very well. The best shower ever! The campsite has wonderful views and is well maintained. We used the bbq and fire pit. The barn is well equipped for cooking and relaxing. Angus is a wonderful host. Definitely would return to Muiredge when in Scotland!

St. Conan's Escape was lovely- the perfect place to stay during our venture to western Scotland. The accommodations were perfect, the view was excellent, and the host was very friendly and helpful. I will definitely be looking up this cute little Basecamp for our next adventure in Scotland! Thank you!

Ben Lawers National Nature Reserve camping guide

When to go

Ben Lawers National Nature Reserve is open every day, all year-round. For the optimal conditions for hillwalking and mountain climbing, the best time to visit is during spring or summer, which is also the best time to see flowering plants. Weather conditions in winter, and much of fall, can be challenging. If planning to visit any time of year, be sure to have weatherproof gear.

Know before you go

Trails up to the mountains start at the car park. Visitors heading onto the trails should have sturdy walking boots, warm and waterproof clothing, and food and drink for the day.
Visitors should observe the Scottish Outdoor Access Code, leave no trace and refrain from picking flowers.
The closest public bus stop is in the village of Killin, just outside the reserve. This is also where you’ll find the closest public restroom.
