Scotland is a country blessed with the most extraordinary landscapes and natural environments - and was home to John Muir, one of the early pioneers of the national park movement - yet has only two national parks to its name.

These two parks, created in the early years of devolution, have proved themselves in terms of the great benefits they have brought to local communities by creating jobs, vibrant local economies, supporting visitor management and investment in facilities, and protecting and restoring the natural heritage of the area.
