We believe that to make ecological recovery sustainable, it has to work in tandem with community prosperity and wellbeing. This article by our Executive Director, Peter Cairns, explains more.

Unlike a commercial tour operator with shareholders, any surplus generated from our rewilding experiences is reinvested into our work. 

Yes. We are committed to developing sustainable nature-based business models that show how a landscape rich in nature can also support vibrant communities. Your custom allows us to employ local staff and to purchase supplies and services from local businesses.

Fundamentally, we believe that nature-based travel and learning is a force for good, and is part of our strategic focus on Driving Support for Rewilding. However, it would be easy to ignore the inconvenient truth that travel - air travel in particular - contributes to climate change. As an organisation, we constantly review ways to reduce our carbon footprint, so we can continue delivering high impact experiences with a low impact on our environment. 

Scotland’s seasons each have their own charm and character. In spring and early summer, plants and trees are in their fresh greenery, the days are long and the birds are at the height of their breeding season.

As the summer wanes, heather moorlands are bathed in pink and the towering clouds of early autumn start to gather. Salmon are leaping in the rivers and many birds are starting their southerly migration.

By mid-October, the trees are ablaze with colour, the air is crisp and the first snows dust the mountain tops, as skeins of geese return to Scotland for the winter.

We generally work with small groups of up to 8 guests (a trip is confirmed once 5 guests book).
