More about parking

Car park closure

We will be undertaking road grading works within Leannachan Forest during the week commencing 27 July 2026.

The works are expected to take around one week to complete. During this period, North Face car park will be closed to all vehicles for part of the works programme. The grading operation will also cause disruption to any approved third-party vehicular access using the forest road network between the North Face barrier and the Nevis Range barrier.

Pedestrian through-access will remain available throughout the works. We would ask all members of the public to follow any safety signage and instructions provided by site staff while the works are underway.
