There is a well signed, if slightly boggy, walk around the shores of Loch Arienas to the old deserted settlement of Arienas, with great views over the loch.  The reserve supports a variety of habitat type from ancient woodland, heath, mountain and lochan.  The high summits and cliffs support arctic-alpine species such Dryas octopetela (mountain avens) and Sedum villosum (hairy stonecrop).
