Cairngorms recreated in video game Minecraft
26 February 2021
The Cairngorms is a landscape recreated in the video game Minecraft to help young people understand how to run an entire national park.
The virtual world, in which players can construct anything with blocks encompasses all 1,700 sq miles (4,402 sq km) of the park, which includes parts of Highland, Moray, Aberdeenshire and Perthshire.
Settlements have been wiped out and members of the Cairngorms Youth Action Team are now being asked to build new communities.

It's designed to stimulate their thinking about making decisions.
It's fair to say, however, that the team does not take it seriously.
Minecraft creates remote islands
Sixteen-year-old Campbell from Aviemore says he has been constructing a hill fort at the top of Cairn Gorm Cairn Gorm, one of the UK's tallest mountains.
He says: "It doesn't get the temperature across very well but it gets the landscape.
"We've been up the Cairngorms and seen the corries. It's easy to recognize the Lairig Ghru.
"It's as real as can be. You know what is the area that you're in because of the different types of trees and if there are trees or not."
Fellow player Ellie Moore said: "While we're trying to build things and farm there's this constant barrage of monsters and enemies that come out at night
"So it's been hard to venture into the world as you're constantly trying to survive, but I'd say that where we've been thus far is pretty accurate."
Re-creating the park was a lockdown project which Dan Harris carried out in his free time.
He is the director of planning for Cairngorms Park Authority during the day.
He said that they were "basically dropped onto the map at Aviemore and then asked to establish an area or community that complies with the goals of the national park."
"They must consider ways to protect and enhance the natural world and how they can make sustainable use of resources."
