Helping nature find her balance again.
Our team has just completed the final phase of a large-scale drain blocking project on Atholl Estates — an incredible piece of work delivered with precision and teamwork.
Four excavators working in harmony, moving methodically across the landscape — restoring natural hydrology and helping this vast peatland begin to come back to life.
People sometimes comment on our posts saying, “Just leave nature alone.”
We understand that view — but the truth is, these sites were heavily modified in the past. Mechanised drainage systems carved through the peat, lowering water tables and releasing stored carbon.
Our work is about helping nature recover from that legacy — giving her the best possible chance to restore balance once again.
A massive team effort, delivered safely and efficiently by skilled operators who care deeply about the landscapes they work in.

Access matters!
A restock site after mounding can be a challenging environment — uneven, rough, and difficult to navigate. But the work doesn’t stop once the mounding is complete.
Planting teams, maintenance crews and sprayers all rely on safe, well-planned access to move efficiently and work safely. And when it comes to deer management, those access routes become even more critical. Stalkers need clear, robust ATV paths to extract carcasses quickly, safely, and with minimal ground disturbance.
That’s why we take the time to get it right.
At Taiga Upland, ATV access is treated as a key deliverable — not an afterthought. It’s a small part of the project that makes a massive difference to everyone who follows.
From formation to finish, every path is built with the same care, precision, and pride as the rest of our work. Because in Scotland’s uplands, the details matter — and good access is what keeps everything moving.

When the low loaders get unloaded and roll off site, the real work starts! Track swaps and ready to go!
Another landscape-scale peatland restoration project kicking off, and another chance for our team to make a difference.
Scotland’s wild places. Skilled people. Meaningful work. 🌍
