Far Ralia is a nature recovery project located in the Cairngorms National Park, Scotland, near Newtonmore. The 3633-acre site lies at the fringes of the Cairngorms Massif, a vast upland landscape with unique topography and climate. The project aims to restore native woodland and peatlands, with nearly 1.2 million trees planted since 2024. The site's biodiversity has already improved significantly, with an estimated 94% recovery expected in the long term. The carbon savings from the afforestation are predicted to be 328,940 PIUs, with potential for additional peatland carbon units. Due to the remote location and potential hazards, viewing is strictly by prior arrangement only, with a padlocked gate and combination code for access.
