Some woods are notable for having the tallest or rarest trees, others are the best places in the country for spotting ospreys or red squirrels, or even marine mammals; some are known as the best places to explore preserved archaeological features, discovering hidden histories or simply enjoying spectacular scenery.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDivided into 14 regions, each beginning with a summary of the region's woodland heritage, this guide features 365 sites, including details of ownership, designation, area, forest type, how to access it (including grid reference, postcode and 'what3words' reference), alongside a description of the site's key features. Featuring more than 200 stunning photographs of Scotland's plants, animals and spectacular landscapes and expert region maps to help guide you to your nearest forest site, this is an essential book for adventurers, ramblers and wildlife enthusiasts. Wherever you may be in Scotland, with this guide you will never be far from a fascinating forest site!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail-description\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail-description__body readmore-toc\" data-readmore=\"\" id=\"undefined1\"\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScotland's forests\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHow to Use this Guide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAccess to Forests\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKeeping Safe\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAngus \u0026amp; Dundee (Sites 1-12)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eArgyll \u0026amp; Bute (Sites 13-52)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAyrshire (Sites 53-67)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBorders (Sites 68-90)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClyde (Sites 91-102)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDumfries \u0026amp; Galloway (Sites 103-119)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFife (Sites 120-132)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHighlands (Sites 133-248)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLothian (Sites 249-273)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMoray \u0026amp; Nairn (Sites 274-289)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNorth-East (Sites 290-313)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOuter Hebrides, Orkney \u0026amp; Shetland (Sites 314-325)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePerth \u0026amp; Kinross (Sites 326-347)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUpper Forth (Sites 348-365)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSite Designations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGlossary\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUseful Information\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFurther Reading\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRegional Maps\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIndex\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAcknowledgements\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Wilderness Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58198607790462,"sku":"9781472994646","price":21.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0996\/4096\/7550\/files\/TheForestGuide-Scotland.jpg?v=1791823015","url":"https:\/\/wildernessbooks.co.uk\/products\/the-forest-guide-england-copses-woods-and-forests-of-scotland","provider":"Wilderness Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
