The Cairngorms National Park
The largest of the parks at 3800 sq kilometres in area, the Cairngorms National Park in Scotland is a breathtaking haven for unique wildlife and plants, moorlands, forests, rivers and lochs, situated in a stunning mountain landscape.
The Cairngorms National Park is towards the north-west of Scotland and stretches from Grantown on Spey to the heads of the Angus Glens, and from Ballater to Dalwhinnie and Blair Atholl. It is served by several main ‘A' roads, including the A9, A93 and A939. Towns within the park area include Dalwhinnie, Newtonmore, Aviemore and Ballater.
The park has breathtaking scenery, and many opportunities for walking and hiking, golf, mountain biking, canoeing and climbing, not to mention skiing on Cairn Gorm mountain, which has some of the best snow-holding records in Scotland.
Balmoral Castle, the Scottish home of the British Royal family, is also situated in the park between Braemar and Ballater. Queen Victoria called it 'my dear paradise in the Highlands' spending as much time as possible there after the death of Prince Albert in 1861.
Other highlights include numerous heritage centres, historical houses and estates such as Rothiemurchus and Glenlivet, the Glenlivet and Lochnagar distilleries, the Strathspey Steam Railway, the RSPB Osprey Centre at Boat of Garten, the arts and crafts shops at Tomintoul, and Braemar Castle.
The park is 40% larger than the famous Lake District National Park
It contains the largest area of arctic mountain landscape in the British Isles, including four out of five of the country's highest peaks
The forest contains a rare kind of pinewood only found in Scotland and Norway
The park is home to 25% of Europe's threatened animal, bird and plant species
The TV series ‘Monarch of the Glen' was filmed in the park around Dalwhinnie
At Leault Farm, Kincraig, you can watch duck-herding demonstrations!

Are all Royal Letters from Elizabeth II today have the Royal Coat of Arms with the palace she is in below it?
I noticed on the letters of Queen Elizabeth II there is either usually Buckingham Palace, but also Windsor Castle or Balmoral Castle.
Is this custom to always put the castle the Queen is in on the top of letters from her or her ladies-in-waiting?
Yes, it is..just like any other political figure...you receive a letter from the President..you will have a return address of the White House..
This has been tradition since they started writing letters to their "subjects" as they are known....
