Rhynaclach is a new acquisition on the southern slopes of the Menteith Hills overlooking the Forth Valley. This is the first plan for the site and the key objective is to plant native and non-native productive broadleaves, integrating with the existing land use and landscape. Currently the plan area consists mainly of sheep and cattle grazing and about 72ha of the 167.5ha will be retained as a starter farm.
