King Charles visits world class Highland peatlands
King Charles has visited Forsinard, a tiny community at the heart of the UK's newest Unesco World Heritage site.
The Flow Country of Caithness and Sutherland covers almost 2,000 sq km (469,500 acres) of one of the most intact and extensive blanket bog systems in the world.
After an almost 40-year campaign, it was awarded Unesco World Heritage site status earlier this month.
During his visit, the King unveiled a plaque marking the world heritage status.
