Edinburgh's National Parks

Scotland is home to two astonishing national parks. Both are easily reached in your campervan or RV rental.

The Loch Lomond and The Trossachs National Park are stunning and varied. It features a mix of lakes and mountains, an incredible coastline, and impressive wildlife, including the endangered ospreys.

The Cairngorms National Park is just as impressive. It offers a mix of walking, cycling, and snow and water sports for campervan travelers with an urge for outdoor activities. A park of this size is full of hidden gems, like the trails at Loch Einich, a boat trip on the Gaick Pass, or the chance to see some unforgettable highland cows.

If you're taking a campervan or RV rental from Edinburgh, finding a way to fit in both parks is an excellent idea. There is so much variety and activities to experience that there is something for everyone.
