Carrifran Wildwood
Looking from the viewpoint with its interpretation signs north-westwards along the valley, Carrifran Wildwood, Moffat. Like much of Scotland, Carrifran used to be wooded. From the Neolithic onwards, farmers cleared woodland for buildings and grazing, and hunted predators which had kept grazing under control. Until the Millennium, Carrifran was, like other valleys in the Southern Uplands, denuded of trees by grazing and felling. Deer, sheep and goats would have eaten the young trees trying to regenerate. Now a project, led by Borders Forest Trust, with a 100-year vision to restore wild woodland, is in progress, with exclusion of grazers and planting of over half a million different native trees of many species to provide a rich habitat for wildlife.
