About this property
Mar Lodge Estate occupies nearly 8% of the Cairngorms National Park, covering in total 29,380 hectares of some of the most remote and scenic wild land in Scotland, including four of the five highest mountains in the UK.

Within its boundaries are fine examples of classic features of a Highland landscape: remnants of the ancient Caledonian pine forest, heather moorland, juniper scrub and a part of the high Cairngorm plateau.

The estate is recognised as one of the most important nature conservation landscapes in the British Isles.

The National Trust for Scotland has commissioned an independent, evidence-based review of woodland, moorland and deer management at Mar Lodge Estate, having regard to the Trust’s overall objectives for the Estate, and specifically, fencing policy, deer culling, the regeneration of the forest and maintaining a sporting estate.
