Mountaineering Scotland has worked closely with Braulen Estate and East Monar Estate to reinstate the concession which allows vehicle access over the winter period (approx. 1st November to 31st March) when the private glen road is closed to public vehicles.
Please submit your request for vehicular access to Glen Strathfarrar by 1pm at least 2 working days in advance of your visit.
For example if your intended visit is on a Thursday, please submit your request by 1pm on the Tuesday at the latest; If you would like to visit the glen on a weekend or Monday, please let us know by 1pm the preceeding Thursday at the latest. If you contact us on a Friday or on the day of your intended visit, we may not be able to inform estate staff in time for your visit and vehicle access will not be allowed.
This arrangement with the estates applies only to Mountaineering Scotland members. Not a member? Join here.
Please note: The winter access conditions only apply to people wishing to take vehicles into the glen only - if you are accessing the glen by foot or bike, you do not need to submit a request to Mountaineering Scotland. Vehicles may not be left overnight in the glen.
Please read the full conditions for vehicular access on our website and the information sent by email before your visit. If you have any questions please get in touch.
