Perfect for walking and cycling, this rustling forest is also one of the best places in central Scotland to see elusive red squirrels. Filled with towering Scots pines, Devilla Forest is the ideal habitat for these iconic, but rapidly declining, animals. Follow the red squirrel trail and keep your eyes peeled for the quick flash of red fur. Elsewhere, the forest’s 700 hectares hide a range of historic sites and stories to uncover. Look out for four lochs, an abandoned church and a WWII explosives research station as you wander.
