🌿 This World Environment Day, take a moment to connect with one of the world's oldest surviving landscapes.
As part of Unearth the Palaeoverse: Dig Into the Dawn of Time, visitors can relax and immerse themselves in a stunning film experience created by award-winning wildlife filmmaker Simon Watts.
Journey through the ancient Caledonian forest and bog woodlands of the Scottish Highlands, an 8,000-year-old survivor of the last Ice Age. Home to towering Scots pines, rare wildlife and prehistoric plant species, this remarkable environment offers a glimpse into a landscape that has endured for thousands of years.
World Environment Day is a chance to celebrate and protect the natural world around us, and this immersive experience highlights the beauty, resilience and importance of these ancient habitats.
