    Bob Scott's Bothy is on the Mar Lodge Estate and open for use by all. The bothy is fashioned from stone and wood with a tin roof and features a multifuel stove. The bothy will comfortably fit a dozen or so and is one of the most popular in the Cairngorms.

    Water from Lui Burn nearby is potable and there's a septic tank loo to the side of the bothy for human waste and loo roll only.

      This is a fanstastic bothy next to a beautiful river with delicious fresh water in it. Served well by a wide gravel path. Plenty of space on the inside which could easily sleep 10 people with room to spare.

        Tranquill waypoint - well worth a visit if only in passing.
