Aberdeenshire Council have produced a draft nature network for Aberdeenshire. We are looking for your views on the network. The consultation will run from 23rd March 2026 to 1st May 2026

Nationally, it is identified that:

By 2030 Scotland will have evolving, flexible and resilient Nature Networks connecting nature-rich areas allowing wildlife and natural processes to move and adapt to land use and climate change pressures. The networks will help build people’s connection to nature, providing biodiversity-rich spaces that deliver local benefits, and meet the priorities of local communities for nature.’

The nature network is being identified to provide a focus for action on nature recovery in Aberdeenshire. It identifies corridors where work could take place to provide greater connectivity and resilience for nature in Aberdeenshire. It is a tool that will be of interest to communities, land managers, developers and other stakeholders as it can be used to help individual actions maximise their benefit.

Please read the document in the tab to the right for full detail of the development of the nature network and its proposed uses. An online map of the nature network can be viewed at Draft Aberdeenshire Nature Network
