A remote woodland scattered through Glen Loyne in the northwest Highlands is home to some of Scotland’s oldest Scots pine trees, dating back at least 560 years. But this precious remnant of ancient Caledonian pinewood was at risk of being lost forever. Thanks to the collaboration of the landowner, in 2023, our Affric Highlands team took to the ground to protect this irreplaceable habitat.
Glen Loyne, on East Glen Quoich estate, lies within Affric Highlands - the UK’s largest rewilding landscape. Led by Trees for Life and Rewilding Europe, this 30-year community-focused initiative will restore woodland, peatland and riverside habitats over half a million acres from Loch Ness to the west coast, supporting re-peopling and nature-based economic opportunities.

Thanks to the Steven family, whose generous donation made this project possible.
