Acquired by the Trust in 2025, Inverbroom is the Trust’s largest ever site at 7,618 hectares. The reserve, which was formerly managed as a sporting estate, is predominantly made up of peatland, ancient semi-natural woodland, farmland and numerous lochs and lochans, the largest being the four-kilometre-long Loch a’ Bhraoin.
Inverbroom is bordered to the east by two rivers, the Broom and the Cuileig, and to the south by two Munros, A’ Chailleach and Sgùrr Breac. The built infrastructure includes two bridges designed by Sir John Fowler, chief engineer on the construction of the Forth Road Bridge, who once owned Inverbroom.
