Moine Mhor, Kilmartin Glen

 
Moine Mhor, also known as the Great Moss, may be soggy but it’s hardly boring. This raised bog, 5,000 years in the making, is both a rare and threatened habitat. Moine Mhor is home to a great variety of animals, birds and plants. Its varied landscape includes hummocks, hollows and pools. Walk the moss. Watch birds. Spot dragonflies.
