been greatly influenced by the activities of humans, and as recently as 1920 it
was managed as a timber-production plantation. Since then the forest has been
largely allowed to revert to a natural state, and after years of mismanagement

protection, established a number of visitor walking trails and is in the
process of training up ‘eco-guides’.
