02 Purpose and work
What the charity exists to do
The Charity exists to conserve, protect, develop and manage the Cormonachan Community Woodlands for the benefit of the Loch Goil communities and visitors to Loch Goil., We do this by managing the woodlands through regular volunteer days in a sustainable manner, by providing 4.5km of paths for leisure activity, information through the squirrel hide and boards explaining flora and fauna, by developing wider access to the medieval settlement at Upper Cormonachan and the spectacular Cormonachan Falls and encourage schools and young folk to learn about nature and heritage. These regular activities are supplemented by specific events which vary from year to year but recently include a visit from the Story Wagon and a family activity named 'Escape the Forest' .
