For some, Torridon is Scotland's finest glen. This is a region of truly ancient mountain massifs, containing some of the oldest exposed land on the planet. The foundations of gneiss that the likes of Liathach and Beinn Eighe sit on are thought to be in the region of 2,600 million years old.

Glen Torridon's notorious triumvirate of Beinn Alligin, Liathach and Beinn Eighe are simply astonishing mountain days, but there's more to Torridon than this famous three. Corbetts like Baosbheinn and Beinn Dearg have their own charms, while being much quieter than the big three.
