Nature Centres & Reserves
Tel: 0844 493 2136
Overview
Famed for its botanical riches, the rare mixture of lime-rich underlying rocks, high altitude and climate combine to make Ben Lawers a haven for a huge diversity of plants. There’s everything from the lush vegetation of the lower slopes to rare arctic-alpine plants like alpine saxifrage and gentians eking out an existence high on the mountain.
Best Time To Visit: June to August for alpine plants.
Facilities: Ranger-led walks and events (visit www.nts.org.uk or phone 0844 493 2136). Nature trail on lower slopes is easily accessible from the car park; self-guiding booklets available on site.
Further Information: NTS Ranger Service, Lynedoch, Main Street, Killin FK21 8UW. Tel: 0844 493 2136. Email: benlawers@nts.org.uk
