Un petit parking le long de l’A93 entre Braemar et Pitlochry. Un peu près de la route mais peu fréquentée la nuit donc plutôt calme... et tout ça dans un cadre somptueux digne des plus beaux paysages d’Ecosse!

A small car park along the A93 between Braemar and Pitlochry. A little near the road but not very busy at night so rather quiet... and all this in a sumptuous setting worthy of the most beautiful landscapes in Scotland!

    I loved this spot and I was the only one there, but the wind was quite intense and there were a few times where I felt like the car was going to blow off the cliff. Also, it was a bit of a challenge to find a level spot, but I was able to find one sort of in the middle.

    good place to stay one night. a good starting point for some walks. beautiful view and although it is close to the road, we did not wake due to the sounds of the very few cars passing by.

    Schotterplatz direkt an der Straße. Nachts ruhig, tagsüber mäßiger Verkehr. Mülleimer vorhanden, Standpunkt für tolle Wanderungen! Für ca 5 PKW/ 4 Vans.

    “Connecting Contours” art installation parking area, popular with walkers during the day but quiet at night. Beautiful spot with stunning views and very little traffic noise overnight. Rubbish bin provided and room for a few vehicles. I have stayed here a couple of times, once sharing with two other motorhomes and once on my own. Would definitely return.

    Great Parking Spot. No issues at all, was well below freezing but roads were kept open. Breakfast available in the morning at Ski Centre up the hill (also has toilets)

    Fab spot for a wee one night stay. Views are great, especially if you get a good sunset. Could hear the cars passing on the road but only faintly and the road got quiet quick quickly.

    Fantastic views and space for a few vans or even large Motorhomes. Set back from road so quiet enough. Main problem was the swarms of midges.

    Stayed one night here and it was great. There were a couple other campervans down in the valley and one further up near the ski resort. We picked this spot and think it was the best of all. The views were lovely. It was set well off the road so the very few cars that passed at night didn’t bother us. We were the only campervan. I would recommend a dip in the brook at the bottom of the valley too!
