Fala Flow is an area of upland blanket bog on the edge of the Lammermuir Hills, in Midlothian, Scotland. Located north of the village of Fala, around 15 km south east of Edinburgh, an area of 318 hectares has been designated as a Ramsar Site since 1990. The site is a blanket upland mire with some pools, developed at a lower altitude than most blanket bogs in Midlothian. It supports an internationally important population of pink-footed geese, with around 3% of the Greenland and Iceland populations overwintering at the site.
