Campsites with fishing 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.

Campsites with fishing in Ben Lawers National Nature Reserve 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.
