Perfect location to enjoy as many outdoor sports as possible.
Winter Mountain Walking, Sledging and Mountain Biking all with my 6 year old grandson.
Start them on the right track early and encourage them to go further
Welcome to Overland Bound, whilst I can't answer your question regarding Jeeps we have travelled extensively in a SWB LR Defender 90.
Organisation is key and putting things back where they belong. We travelled almost 3 years like this visiting the likes of Morocco and Mongolia.
The good news...
Before getting hung up on what gear should you have consider what do you need. As kids we camped throughout Scotland with a sheet as a tent, a blanket instead of a sleeping back and a satchel to carry it in.
We all move on from those uncomfortable days but the bottom line is use what you...
Due to the fact my grandson Dominic and I are having so much fun we have extended our stay until Sunday 17th and the open invitation to all members to come say hi, enjoy a beer or camp with us remains.
There is so much to do here around Aviemore that there are not enough days to fit it all in...
There is a popular misconception that becoming a member of Overland Bound means you will get regular arranged meets and trips.

Any one feels like joining us for a coffee, beer day or night feel free.
In the meantime we have been out and...

In the meantime we explore Scotland and the U.K.

We are staying at the Dalraddy Campsite so anyone local or passing by that wants to come join us for a night or say hi you will be most welcome.
Oh and give us a wave if you see us...

Don’t make the mistake of thinking Overlanding is just 4wd off road travel.
Having Overlanded extensively in a Land Rover Defender much of those travels could have been done in 2wd vehicles and we saw many people doing just that including a London Double decker bus doing the Mongol Rally.
