A9, PH18 5UJ, Pitlochry
Been here?
This is a free parking spot between the A9 and a railway, with wonderful hill views and several possible places along the same road. Occasional trains and some road traffic can be heard, but recent stays were peaceful and the trains stop at night. Please leave no trace, as requested by a nearby resident.

Nice peaceful spot between the dual carriageway and railway tracks. Occasional trains, but they are not too noisy.Translating
Superb quiet location with a magnificent view. Apart from the trains passing directly below, which are a little noisy but stop at night, we had a very peaceful night. Thanks for sharing!Translating
Very beautiful view. You can hike or go for walks very well. Quiet at night apart from a few trucks. We had some midges around, but they did not bother us much.Translating
Beautiful view, especially at sunset. The noise from the train and the A9 did not bother us. Several spaces along the same road.Translating
Great place to stop, very remote with wonderful mountain views. Make sure to bring earplugs for the nearby road, train and wind!Translating
Nice road far enough from main road to not hear the noises… the place itself was too muddy for us to park but along the same side road there are a few spots where to park up for the night
Unfortunately, the site is very churned up because of the heavy rain and is currently not recommended. The view is okay, with a train directly below and a house not far away. Good access.Translating
Between the main road, a railway line and the Highlands, with a truly magnificent view. Some noise from the road and a few passing trains, but very quiet after 8 p.m.Translating
Great spot on our way to Aviemore after work. Quiet overnight despite being between road and railway. Would come back!
Magnificent view and a quiet place to sleep. The spot is away from the road and near the railway, but very little noise.Translating
Superb spot for the night! Even though it is between the railway and the main road, it was very, very quiet!Translating
Excellent spot! Located between the A9 and the railway, we stopped here on our way to Aviemore. Beautiful views of the hills. Peaceful night; little traffic and the trains do not run at night.Translating
Beautiful spot. Yes, you will hear the traffic, but it is so convenient and otherwise quiet that we could not have stayed in a better place.Translating
Beautiful, convenient. Situated between the A9 and the railway line, a short distance down the track from the main road.It's a really quiet spot, in spite of its location. Very exposed so there's no shelter from strong winds. Also, please note that there is pest control in force here, with lots of animal traps and poison, probably to protect the railway line. Keep pets close to you.
For off grids it’s perfect, other than a slight bit of road noise it’s so peaceful and the view in the morning is stunning!
Quiet even though there is a railway line nearby, rather enchanting, with the road above. Lovely view in nature. Be careful: the barrier at the end of the road is closed. Well located.Translating
