Cairngorms Forest Strategy: Consultation

The Cairngorms Forest Strategy is the key document providing strategic direction on future forest management and the restoration of woodlands in the Cairngorms National Park over the next two decades. Our aim is to create a strategy that gives a strong sense of the great potential that forestry and woodland management brings for the future. Every reader will have views on whether different aspects of the strategy should have more or less emphasis. We welcome your views and strongly encourage you to give us your feedback here today.
