Senga Wood, Drumnadrochit, Highlands
- Land size
- 9 acres
Description
This is a real gem of a woodland nestled up above Loch Ness on the high plateau with views towards Meal Fuar Mhonaidh which at over 2000 feet dominates the skyline. Senga Wood is made up of many parts , all adding to a richness of biodiversity in every season. The Grotaig burn skirts the northern boundary dipping in and out of the title as it meanders its way providing good clean water though it is always worth testing the water.
The northern section is dominated by mature birch with a grassy understory which then moves into meadowland that is thick with wildflowers in the summer months. This then moves down into a more marshy area with various sphagnum mosses and rushes. This is a complex ecosystem that is becoming rarer to find as land gets drained.
The value of a woodland lies in this complexity: from an environmental perspective, invariably it is what is going on in the micro world that is more important than the macro. In this sense Senga Wood is very much the jewel in the crown of the woods at Grotaig. There is a vibrant community of woodland owners here co existing in what is a quite remarkable area of land and as such early viewing is recommended.
