You can’t say you weren’t warned.
At the Cairngorm Reindeer Center there are small paddocks where visitors who do not have time to go on a trip up on the hills can see a small group of reindeer that are brought down off the hills which is very convenient for the visitor. However you may choose to join the reindeer herder out on the hillsides where the reindeer graze in their natural environment. You would not want to miss the experience.
During guided visits At the Cairngorm Reindeer Centre you may wander freely among the friendly reindeer stroking and feeding them. The Cairngorm Reindeer Centre offers at least one visit every day to see the herd in the wild, weather permitting. However, as they are wild, they can roam a long way so there’s a chance that on some days you won’t be able to find them!
Daily visits to the animals involve a five-minute drive and a short walk from the Cairngorm Reindeer Centre, so what you waiting for? Come and enjoy this most wonderful experience for the whole family.
