Very high fire risk - 12 to 13 August
The Scottish Fire and Rescue Service have issued wildfire warnings impacting the National Park from Wednesday 12 August to Thursday 13 August.
We have seen all too recently how devastating wildfires can be. While enjoying the warm weather in the Cairngorms, remember:
- Fires and barbecues are not allowed under the new fire byelaw
- Always ensure cigarettes are fully extinguished and take your litter (including glass) away with you
- If you see a wildfire, dial the emergency services on 999 and provide them with the location
