The Great Trossachs Forest

Welcome to The Great Trossachs Forest, a 200-year partnership project restoring heavily grazed hillsides and plantation forestry to a rich and diverse mosaic of habitats full of wildlife. Since the project started, the effects have been transformational. The landscape is healing, and a dynamic ecosystem is bouncing back to life.
