Upper Camster is a small hamlet, which lies at the source of the Camster Burn, 4 miles north of Lybster, in Caithness, Scottish Highlands and is in the Scottish council area of Highland.[1]


The Grey Cairns of Camster are two large Neolithic chambered cairns located about quarter of a mile north of Upper Camster. The cairns, which are considered to be examples of the Orkney-Cromarty type of chambered cairn, were constructed in the third or fourth millennium BC in a desolate stretch of boggy peat-covered moorland in the Flow Country of Caithness.[2]
