Ben Lawers National Nature Reserve

Ben Lawers National Nature Reserve is located in the Breadalbane region of the Scottish Highlands, north of Loch Tay. As the highest peak in Perthshire and part of a ridge that includes six other Munros, it features stunning metamorphic rock formations and a unique landscape shaped by geological activity. The reserve is recognized for its natural beauty and ecological significance, making it a vital area for conservation. Wildlife enthusiasts can look for various species, particularly in June when activity peaks. Notable sightings include the Scabious Clubhorn and several insects such as the White-spotted Leaf-galler and Wood Vetch, all best observed around 01:00. September also offers opportunities to spot Carnation Sedge and Wood Vetch, while May brings the Anoplotrupes stercorosus.
