About Glen Garry Native Pine Wood

Please note, Alt na Cailliche long path and Ciste Dubh Path are currently closed due to harvesting and fallen trees. (Updated 20th April 2012)

The pinewoods are part of the Caledonian Reserves that have been designated by Europe for protection and restoration. The pinewood is part of the larger Glengarry Forest area and as such is surrounded by other tree species including broadleaves and conifers.

Been around the forest at Invergarry many times and recently found the maps of the walks to be done on my next visit to the area

My husband, sister in law and I were recently staying in the Invergarry area on holiday and we would like to say how much we enjoyed the forest walks at Invergarry. They really are first class - well done!
