The Isle of Man will be the first to benefit as The Wildlife Trusts work to restore and expand rainforests across the British Isles.
It comes following a £38m donation from Aviva, which will fund the programme to restore the habitat and help nature recover.
The first two chosen sites are Creg y Cowin on the Isle of Man and Bryn Ifan in North Wales.
It means over 70 acres on the Island will be planted with native tree species, with around 20 acres allowed to regenerate naturally.
The Manx Wildlife Trust has partnered with the Isle of Man Woodland Trust for the 'landmark project.'
