Scotland's forests have been exploited and managed for thousands of years. While there are no truly natural woodlands left, we have semi-natural woodland, and plantations where trees are grown for a specific purpose.
Exploring these forests provides clues to the past, including archaeological remains of the people who lived in and used these forests centuries ago.
