The National Forest Estate makes up almost one third of Scotland's woodlands. It is managed on behalf of the Scottish people by Forest Enterprise Scotland, an agency of the Forestry Commission. Many people think this means timber production, and that's true, but it's only part of the story. Our work includes developing renewable energy schemes, creating and maintaining trails and visitor facilities, and conserving the estate's habitats, wildlife and archaeological treasures.
A small cache hidden just off the path in Braeval Forest. Finding the cache should be easy (it's bright pink!) but getting to it is a bit more difficult. First you have to walk up the hill. The paths are easy to follow but can be muddy after rainfall. Then you have to climb a little higher. Ok a lot higher. And you do need to climb, this one isn't 'fish-able'. But the views are worth it. Just don't try it in the dark.
Geocaching is welcomed on the National Forest Estate, subject to the conditions and guidance agreed with the Geocaching Association of Great Britain.
