The Grey Cairns of Camster are two large Neolithic chambered cairns located about 8+1⁄2 miles (14 kilometres) south of Watten and 5 miles (8 km) north of Lybster in Caithness, in the Highland region of Scotland. They are among the oldest structures in Scotland, dating to about 5,000 years ago. The cairns demonstrate the complexity of Neolithic architecture, with central burial chambers accessed through narrow passages from the outside. They were excavated and restored by Historic Environment Scotland in the late 20th century and are open to the public.

  • Die Cairns von Camster sind Heel-shaped Cairns und liegen in Caithness in den schottischen Highlands nördlich von Lybster und bestehen aus dem runden und dem langen Steinhügel, die 200 m auseinander liegen (ND24SE 1 2601 4420). Die als „graue Cairns“ bekannten Anlagen hoben sich gegen das braune Moorland deutlicher ab, bevor der heutige Wald gepflanzt wurde. (de)
