Upper Glen Affric

The fencing which is almost everywhere in Scotland is partly responsible for the regeneration of the Scots Pine woodland as it prevents the deer from grazing the young trees. There's a constant battle between deer farming for hunting and regeneration and rewilding in the highlands. There needs to be far more of this kind of control in my opinion to give the highlands back to the forests and its wildlife.

The track eventually leads to Britain's remotist Youth Hostel.
