Our lower and middle Mountain Bike Trails are opening 10.00 am - The Top Trails are now also open.

Snow Level: 700m


News from the Slopes

Big news! Our Mountain Bike Park will be open from Saturday 18 April. With the mountain still open for snowsports this will mean visitors can ski or snowboard and bike at Cairngorm Mountain on the same day. All our Mountain Bike Trails are now fully open

We are currently open for snowsports every day snow cover and weather permitting. Lift Passes can be booked online or purchased on the day from the Ticket Office. Due to reducing snow cover outside the Ski Area, Funicular Touring Pass sales are suspended.
