A scenic view of Ariundle Oakwood National Nature Reserve

The reserve is home to a rare fragment of the ancient oakwood that once stretched from Portugal to Norway. Visitors can find lush, green landscape cloaked in mosses, lichens and liverworts, alongside wildlife such as pine martens, otters and the occasional wildcat, as well as insect life including dragonflies and such rare butterflies as the small and quick chequered skipper. The reserve is a great destination all year round.
