Biodiversity And Conservation at Llyn Brenig


The team at Llyn Brenig is committed to biodiversity and conservation and a number of schemes are supported currently.

The Brenig Osprey Project, in collaboration with North Wales Wildlife Trust, is probably the most well-known due to the incredible accessibility provided by a 24-hour livesteam from the nest during the breeding season.

Other conservation programmes include a house martin hotel, red squirrel scheme and conservation farming. Find out more about our wonderful conservation ventures below and don’t forget to follow our social media channels for up-to-date information on the progress of our work.
