We are a community conservation charity based in Lochaber in the West Highlands of Scotland. Our aim is to look after and manage Ben Nevis and the surrounding area. As a natural and cultural environment attracting over 150,000 visitors every year, the Nevis area needs sensitive management to maintain and protect its unique landscapes, flora, fauna and wildlife.
