Gentle paths and fine trees around lovely Loch Dunmore

The owners of Faskally House created this model woodland in the 19th century and the house later became a school for young foresters. You can explore the rich mix of tree species along the Foresters' Trail, or take the easy access Dunmore Trail around the loch. Water lilies bloom here in summer, and there's a spectacular show of autumn colour.

Watch out for wildlife here too. There are kingfishers and herons, as well as goldeneye ducks nesting in the trees.
