MAKING AN IMPACT

We are committed to creating fun learning experiences that deliver positive impact. Our Rewilding Journeys are built around the following principles:

 

DISCOVERY

DISCOVERY

Let us show you what rewilding looks like on the ground, by opening the doors to some of the UK’s most ambitious nature restoration initiatives. 

WELLBEING

WELLBEING

Enhance your wellbeing by immersing yourself in landscapes of hope, while enjoying Highland hospitality. 

COMMUNITY

COMMUNITY

Your custom helps demonstrate that wild nature has a social and economic value, and can help communities prosper.

Making more rewilding happen

At the time of booking, you can choose to make an impact donation to our Rewilding Fund. Contributions to this ring fenced fund are invested directly in the restoration of natural habitats across Scotland, to lock away carbon, boost biodiversity and support thriving communities.

LEARN MORE

How does rewilding and nature tourism fit together?

We believe that to make ecological recovery sustainable, it has to work in tandem with community prosperity and wellbeing. This article by our Executive Director, Peter Cairns, explains more.

How does my custom directly benefit rewilding?

Unlike a commercial tour operator with shareholders, any surplus generated from our rewilding experiences is reinvested into our work. 

Do local people benefit from my booking?

Yes. We are committed to developing sustainable nature-based business models that show how a landscape rich in nature can also support vibrant communities. Your custom allows us to employ local staff and to purchase supplies and services from local businesses.

Are you encouraging travel that produces harmful emissions?

Fundamentally, we believe that nature-based travel and learning is a force for good, and is part of our strategic focus on Driving Support for Rewilding. However, it would be easy to ignore the inconvenient truth that travel - air travel in particular - contributes to climate change. As an organisation, we constantly review ways to reduce our carbon footprint, so we can continue delivering high impact experiences with a low impact on our environment. 

When is the best time of year to visit?

Scotland’s seasons each have their own charm and character. In spring and early summer, plants and trees are in their fresh greenery, the days are long and the birds are at the height of their breeding season.

As the summer wanes, heather moorlands are bathed in pink and the towering clouds of early autumn start to gather. Salmon are leaping in the rivers and many birds are starting their southerly migration.

By mid-October, the trees are ablaze with colour, the air is crisp and the first snows dust the mountain tops, as skeins of geese return to Scotland for the winter.

What size are your groups?

We generally work with small groups of up to 8 guests (a trip is confirmed once 5 guests book). 

WHAT OUR GUESTS THINK
