East Cairngorms Moorland Partnership

This document contains information about the East Cairngorms Moorland Partnership, which was established in 2015 to promote more sustainable moorland management through collaboration. The partnership includes the Cairngorms National Park Authority and several estates, covering around 1,000 km2 of the National Park. Its objectives are to restore moorland habitats, improve conservation status of threatened species, deliver private interests through sustainable management, create evidence through monitoring, and improve understanding of moorland management benefits, with a focus on peatland restoration and muirburn. The document also touches upon species conservation, including moorland raptors and breeding waders and highlights that monitoring and further action are needed to enhance biodiversity and the resilience of the moorland.
