Beinn Eighe NNR - 70th Anniversary Story Map
Beinn Eighe NNR was the first National Nature Reserve (NNR) in the UK, and the site was originally protected to conserve and restore the ancient pinewoods, as well as many other important habitats and species.
As Beinn Eighe has reached the significant milestone of being a NNR for 70 years, we have looked back at some of the changes to the woodlands over this time.
