Loch Ness Forest

  |   Posted by David Flindall   |   1 min read

The Loch Ness Afforestation Project aims to restore native woodland to the uplands south of Loch Ness, in the heart of the once-vast Caledonian Forest. The project involves planting 100,000 native trees, including the reintroduction of 1,000 aspen trees, and aims to create a permanent, diverse forest that will be contiguous with existing forests and complement nearby nature reserves.

The project is located on the Corriegarth Estate, which is home to a variety of rare and endangered species, including golden eagles, white-tailed eagles, and Scottish wildcats. The project will also reduce flashy runoff into Loch Ness and Loch Mhor, which are important sources of drinking water and popular locations for recreational fishing and ecotourism.

The project has already sold around 1,000 late-vintage units, and approximately 19,000 units remain available for purchase.
