Natural Heritage Futures
Natural Heritage Futures aims to guide the sustainable management and use of Scotland's nature and landscapes up until 2025.
Published in 2002 and refreshed in 2009, Natural Heritage Futures aims to guide the sustainable management and use of Scotland's nature and landscapes up until 2025.
An Overview provides an introduction
Our programme's six national prospectuses cover:
- farmland
- coasts and seas
- hills and moors
- settlements
- freshwater
- forests and woodlands
Each prospectus describes:
- what is distinctive to each region in Scotland
- a vision for the natural heritage for 2025
- objectives and actions required to pursue that vision.
There are also 21 documents for different parts of Scotland, each of which has its own distinctive character.
You should read each original prospectus from 2002 in tandem with the relevant update produced following our 2009 prospectus review.
All Natural Heritage Futures (NHF) are listed below. You can download a copy from the National Library of Scotland (NLS).
