Climbing to the top of Scotland’s highest mountain Ben Nevis can be met with some minor challenges. Snow, strong winds, heavy rain, subzero temperatures and poor visibility are common factors but on a good day the views are spectacular.

Perthshire is known as big tree country due to its large expanse of forests and plentiful tall trees. Castles, gushing rivers and waterfalls, moorlands and mountains also characterise the region with autumn making Perthshire particularly photogenic. My personal favourites are Blair Castle at Blair Atholl and the Hermitage at Dunkeld.
