Where?

If you look west from the A880 at Cot House you will see a lovely area of woodland on the banks of the Eachaig river. It often floods at very high tides, especially after lots of rain, which creates a different kind of habitat from other woodlands nearby. 

As well as the woodland, there are boggy areas and some of these have patches of invasive non-native species, such as American skunk cabbage (Lysichiton americanus). There is also a shingle beach where you can paddle in the river. Look out for dippers flying past or hunting underwater with their wings outstretched.


Find out where to watch porpoises playing in the water, bees feasting on wildflower nectar, oystercatchers hunting for dinner through this locally created biodiversity map of Dunoon.
