Around the project
We would like to encourage that anyone visiting are aware, that they first of all are most welcome, secondly that we would like to inspire to a responsibility where guests are respectfully aware that we as humans are what anything else in nature fears the most and therefore also what potentially can disturb a habitat more than anything else alive.
Within the natural respect for nature lies also the understanding that everything to some extent connected or affected. From fungi to birds migrating, from anything dead to anything alive.
The grounds consists of around 12.000 acres, predominantly open hill. Starting from 150m above sea level to the peaks of Beinn Deargh at 1046 m.
These altitude differences dictate non similar climates encouraging varieties in plant species. At the top of Beinn Deargh one is likely to find almost alpine like flora.
And below on ground more rich on nutrition one will find more of the common species of Scotland.
As a species we as humans have doubled in numbers during the last fifty years, where norms that were as obviously precedent no longer can fully be if we are to thrive without it being at the expense of something degrading faster than nature can handle.
We therefore in respect of amongst many others ground nesting birds, that visitors will follow marked routes in the terrain, and not leave any waste in nature.
You will on the assigned parking spots on Braemore along the N500 find signs with maps showing dedicated walking routes.
