Utsi's Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

Named after the Sami Mikel Utsi, who (along with his wife Ethel Lindgren) was responsible for reintroducing reindeer to Scotland, this bridge leads over the River Allt Mor to Chalamain Gap.

The first version was replaced by the Edinburgh and Heriot Watt Universities Officer Training Corps as part of a summer project in 1979, but after 41 years and thousands of feet (and hooves) it had reached the end of its safe life and was due for replacement.

The Cairngorm Mountain Railway is a two-kilometer funicular railway on Cairn Gorm in Scotland and the highest railway in the United Kingdom. It is located in Cairngorms National Park, Britain's largest national park, near Aviemore, Highland. / The Cairngorm Mountain Railway is a two-kilometer funicular railway on Cairn Gorm in Scotland and the highest railway in the United Kingdom. It is located in Cairngorms National Park, Britain's largest national park, near Aviemore, Highland.

Since 1961, there was a chairlift on the slopes of Cairn Gorm, which had proven to be very susceptible to wind. The rebuilding of the Cairngorm Mountain Railway by the company Doppelmayr began in 1999, the opening was on December 23, 2001. [1] The railway is operated by Cairngorm Mountain Limited and is owned by Highlands and Islands Enterprise. At 1,970 m in length, the railway, which is executed in 2,000 mm broad gauge, negotiates a height difference of 462 m. Above the middle station Sheiling there is an alternative place. The route is mostly designed as a concrete viaduct, the last 350 m are located in a tunnel. The cable car is part of the ski area in winter and serves hikers and tourists in summer.

Jean's Hut Memorial Site

Highlight • Monument

Site of a bothy with a commemorative plaque which was erected in memory of a keen mountaineer. The bothy has now been removed due to safety concerns.
There was a plaque on the building (present whereabouts not known) "To the memory of Jean McIntyre Smith, who trod this was joyfully. March 17, 1948. Cha till I tuillidh" It was erected in her memory by her parents soon after she died.

This bothy was removed in 1986 due to safety concerns, following the deaths of three mountaineers who were trying to find it in appalling weather conditions. Several bothies and marker cairns in the area have been removed due to such concerns.
