We reopened to the public on the 10th of February. With no Paddocks and Exhibition available (the site is currently a very big hole) it feels rather strange! But the Hill Trips are running as usual, in fact for the February half term we brought some of our free ranging cows and nine month old calves in to our hill enclosure allowing us to do two Hill Trips a day. So, we’ve been busy looking after our the herd in the enclosure and checking in with the free rangers once every few days. February has so far been rather mild so far with not very much snow so we’ve been having a relatively easy time, and the reindeer are finding easy grazing. We’ll be back to free range visits very soon (Monday 26th Feb) so if anyone is visiting us between now and the end of April be prepared for potentially much longer walks out to find the herd.

Do You need another Reindeer to be adopted!!! I have adopted Zoom but have to ability to adopt another??? Any suggestions???
That’s very kind of you! Zoom is very well! He has a big sister called Chickpea and some cousins if you’d prefer to keep it in the family. Or pretty much anybody you like the look of on our website would be a good choice: https://www.cairngormreindeer.co.uk/adopt/
Do you ever see Torch?
Hi Douglas,
We do see Torch most days at the moment so we will try to remember to put a photo of her in next week’s photo blog.
Best wishes,
