Isle of Eigg
an exceptional range of habitats... supporting a great diversity of wildlife
The Isle of Eigg is situated off the North West coast of Scotland. Just five miles long by three miles at its broadest point, the island holds an exceptional range of habitats from wet and dry heaths to bog, woodland, meadow and coastal habitats, supporting a great diversity of wildlife.
The Scottish Wildlife Trust is a member of the Isle of Eigg Heritage Trust, which manages much of the island. The aims are to maintain and enhance woodland habitats, restore raised bogs, maintain farmed landscape diversity and encourage tourism and recreation.
