Very High Fire Risk!!!
It's been glorious weather but with it comes higher fire risk.
Please enjoy our glens and moorland but respect our wildlife and habitats, especially as many birds are now nesting.
* Don't light fires
* Don't use disposable BBQs
* Don't throw your cigarette butts onto the ground
* Do be extra careful if using a camping stove
* Do take all your litter home with you
Thanks!
There's no such thing as a harmless fire!

We don't want a repeat of last year’s devastating fire.

A year on, from what can only be described as heartbreaking.

🌱 Our Ranger team were out planting new saplings in Glen Rosa.

Our restoration of the Glen is an ongoing endeavour and you can help out by giving your time at volunteer days or by dedicating a tree at https://support.nts.org.uk/dedicate/tree/glen-rosa
