Come and meet some of countries tallest trees. Here you’ll find Douglas firs towering at over 65 metres tall and Britain’s tallest larch and lime tree. They thrive in the shelter of the steep sided gorge here.
James Baillie Fraser (1783 – 1856), the Scottish explorer, may have planted the biggest trees.
James was so inspired by his travels that he modelled the stone bridge here after the Ravenna Gorge in Italy. The Fraser family owned this area for over 500 years before they sold it in 1949.
