The wood is situated on the southern slopes of the Grampian Mountains, offering stunning panoramic views of the surrounding countryside.

The forest is predominantly composed of native broadleaf trees, including oak, birch, and rowan, which create a diverse and vibrant woodland habitat. These trees, along with the lush undergrowth and wildflowers, provide a sanctuary for numerous species of birds, mammals, and insects.
