After reading many fascinating posts about here in my native Scotland, I'd like to offer a just for fun/knowledge sharing challenge to anyone interested/bothered.
I'd like to think I'm fairly well travelled in some of the wilder parts of the land, however there's a lot I'd like to visit and see. On my travels I'm absolutley sick and tired of seeing sheep everywhere-wooly maggotts, they destroy our natural environment. Let's be honest most of Scotlands slopes below roughly 1500-2000ft should be covered in woods of some varying description (debatable for ever I'm sure!).
The challenge is to name anywhere in Scotland where you have been that is as wild as you know where there is no grazing by sheep or cattle (unless it's part of a management strategy such as grazing by Highland Cattle in Pinewoods) and it's relatively natural.
NNR's and the like can be included but not obvious places such as FC plantations.
Good luck and here's my first couple to start you off...
. Mull on the steep wooded shore of Loch Tuath opposite Ulva
. Rum
. Tentsmuir NNR-Fife
