:: CairnGorm Mountain Lift Status & News
Looking like a cold but bright end to the week with wintry conditions right down to the Base Station. Our "Ride the Railway for a Fiver" offer will be running through to Friday 28 November. Book online here or pop into the Ticket Office. As we begin to turn our attention towards preparing for winter operations, this means that Mountain Carting and our Mountain Bike Trails will be closing for the season. This will allow our team to carry out some work on the upper trails and get the lower slopes ready for snowsports.

The Motorhome Stopover facilties at Coire na Ciste including water feeds, chemical waste, and refuse disposal will be unavailable until May 2026. Sign up to our newsletter to receive the latest updates about activities reopening in 2026.
