The Great Trossachs Forest

The Great Trossachs Forest is a large-scale conservation project in Scotland that restores and links several existing woodlands to create a vast, continuous natural forest. Covering around 10,000 hectares, it aims to boost biodiversity, improve water quality, and provide a healthier environment for wildlife and people. The forest includes native trees like Scots pine, oak, and birch, and creates habitats for species such as otters, bats, and red squirrels. By reconnecting fragmented woodlands, the project promotes resilient ecosystems and offers opportunities for recreation and education while preserving the area's natural heritage.
