Hi all

Faced with my son racing DH at fort william this weekend and no accommodation available I've quickly adapted our berlingo to take two sleeping comfortably in the back.

Travelling up on Friday from edin and need a suitable location to park overnight Fri and Sat with me and the lad sleeping in the back.

Could you give me any pointers of a good place to pitch up overnight? Don't want to be too far from the Nevis range gondola station as I'm marshalling at the event too.

Thanks for your advice in advance!

Can you not park at the gondola station then?

Yeah just park in the main car park. Failing that down at the cattle market on the access road

There are "No Overnight Camping" signs. Just tell them you're a marshall though. Surely there are some privileges?ย  ๐Ÿ™‚

I've stayed in the van loads of times at the Nevis Range car park.
