Designation is not an access right

National Scenic Area status exists to conserve the landscape. It creates no right to walk, roam or camp: what you may do on the ground is set by the ordinary access law of Scotland, plus any local byelaws and restrictions. Full detail:access rights in Scotland · check a specific grid reference.

The short version for Scotland — right to roam: Statutory right of responsible access to most land and inland water. Wild camping: Wild camping is broadly lawful under the 2003 Act. This is general information, not legal advice.

Hill data from the Database of British & Irish Hills v18.3 (CC BY 4.0); boundary from Scottish Government via spatialdata.gov.scot (Open Government Licence v3.0) — © Scottish Government, contains Ordnance Survey data © Crown copyright and database right. Hills are assigned by summit position against a generalised boundary, so a top within roughly 100 m of the edge can fall on the wrong side.
