River Luineag, Ancient Caledonian Forest, Glenmore, Aviemore, Cairngorms National Park, Highlands, Scotland, UK, GB.

The Caledonian Forest is the name given to the former temperate rainforest of Scotland. The name comes to us from Pliny the Elder who reveals that 30 years after the Roman invasion of Britain their knowledge of it did not extend beyond the neighbourhood of silva caledonia. He gives no information about where the silva caledonia was, but the known extent of the Roman occupation suggest that it was north of the River Clyde and west of the River Tay.
