As partners in the Concordat we share a vision of a living landscape, supporting the wildlife and the community and available for all to enjoy. We want people to enjoy the magnificent scenery and recreational opportunities. We also intend to enhance the distinctive habitats and species, which make this such a wonderful place. We also listen to and respect the views of local people and neighbours in shaping this vision.

We all work very closely together to keep the natural environment healthy and to encourage a dynamic blend of land use with supports the local community in forestry, farming, tourism, recreation and sporting interests. Working in harmony, we plan to show how a sensitively and dynamically managed estate can contribute to the development and economic viability of the local community. We also appreciate the importance of the Estate in the regeneration of the Aviemore area as a quality tourist destination.
