As well as all its amazing architecture Glasgow is also a gateway to some of Scotland's most stunning scenery. This was the top of Stob Coire Sgreamhach yesterday, looking out across Glen Coe to the mountains of the Nevis range, including Ben Nevis, Scotland's highest point. While it make take a couple of hours to get to there, Glen Coe is easily reachable from the city, even by public transport.

It's nestled in a hollow, known as a corrie, carved out by a glacier during the last ice age, and is surrounded by a horseshoe of three munros (the name given to a mountain over 3000 ft in height in Scotland). These are Ben Lawers (left), An Stùc (middle), and Meall Garbh (right).

Glasgow not only has amazing architecture, culture and people, it also has some stunning wild places within easy reach. This is Lochan nan Cat, in the Ben Lawers National Nature Reserve, where I found myself today.

Ben Lawers from Meall Corranaich on a beautiful day in the Scottish mountains spent avoiding the news and knocking another couple of munros off the list.

One of the things I love about Glasgow is how close it is to the mountains. In particular, you can be in the Arrochar Alps within an hour. This area has five Munros and eight Corbetts, including the Cobbler, which was home to Scotland's first climbing club, founded in 1866.
This was the view from Ben Vorlich today back through the western parts of the Arrochar Alps and down to Loch Lomond.
