Where is it?
Why do you go there? I did all the mountains and ridges round there when I was younger: The Three Sisters, Buachaille Etive Mor and the Aonach Eagach Ridge a few times. I am a scrambler and a hillwalker, not a ropes climber – I have never quite had the courage for that.
How often do you go? Every two or three years. If I am in Scotland, I try to go. Even for just a day trip.
How did you discover it? Through school trips, travelling up from Edinburgh. My school had what was called third-year projects where you would help in the community and then on your downtime go hiking, camping and climbing.

As Christmas approaches at the end of an unprecedented year, which will be devoid of the usual mass Hogmanay celebrations, most of us will be staying close to home, seeking escapism in the movies which have illuminated Scotland at its best.
