About River Affric Carpark
The River Affric carpark is at the end of the public road in Glen Affric. It is set in the heart of the Affric hills between Loch Beinn a 'Mheadhoin and Loch Affric.
Stunning views, waymarked walks, long-distance and hill walks available from this carpark make it the most popular one in Glen Affric.
Try to arrive early in the height of the summer - it can be difficult to find a parking space.
You can also download the Glen Affric leaflet (PDF 4Mb) which has a map of the glen and details of the walks here.
