This website has been set up primarily to gather and share information on Aspen in Scotland. We are currently developing a facility to map Aspen stands throughout Scotland.

Once the site is fully operational, you will be able to view a map showing the known distribution of Aspen stands and to input your own records and upload photographs. In the meantime, why not starting looking out for Aspen in your own area?

Aspen is easy to identify at all seasons. In the summer, look out for its highly distinctive leaves, which shake in the wind.We are preparing an identification guide to help you spot Aspen trees, and record their location.
