Despite growing up in suburban London, where the highest peaks I could see housed office workers, I've always found myself drawn to the outdoors. From building and sleeping in shelters in the woods as a kid, to bouldering trips in the Peak District and solo motorcycle tours in Europe, I'm happiest when I step out of my comfort zone. My next dream is to start climbing mountains and, eventually, summit a 4,000m peak in the Alps, and at WFA I'm certainly in good company to make that a reality.
Rising to 1,345m above sea level, Scotland’s Ben Nevis is the tallest mountain in the UK, an accolade that draws plenty of climbers and hill-walkers to its steep sides every year.
But, while reaching that towering summit is a fantastic feeling, we’ve found some incredible footage of the big mountain that showcases the staggering scenery you’ll view along the way.
Capturing an angle that you don’t see from your walk, this drone footage will have you desperate to head there when travel restrictions allow as well. Watch the entire video below…
