An obviously well researched article, that should bring this debate to the attention of a wider audience, many of whom, like the author concedes about himself, have hitherto lacked knowledge of many wildlife/habitat management issues they encounter on their walks.
Hopefully it may bring more opposition to bear on the subject of new hill tracks, however I frequently see hikers using these, so maybe in some quarters they are gratefully received.
Wherever possible, on my visits to the highlands, I try to only use the long established stalking paths,otherwise preferring to rough it, putting my money where my mouth is, so to speak.
A nice lead photo ,which I believe is of Gaick Forest.
