Carstramon Wood

Carstramon Wood is a Scottish Wildlife Trust reserve about 2 miles from Gatehouse of Fleet in Dumfries and Galloway, one of the largest semi-natural broadleaved woodlands in the area. Its ancient oak woodland supports ferns, lichens and bluebells in spring, and charcoal platforms survive from the days when the oaks supplied charcoal and bobbins for a local mill. Maintained paths, steep in places, lead through the wood and onto the hill beyond.
