One of the things we often take for granted in Glasgow is just how good we have got it when it comes to access to stunning scenery and rugged landscapes.
A short jaunt from the city and you will be met with the spectacular sights of Loch Lomond and the Trossachs or a slightly longer one will take you on to Fort William and the wild west coast.
Wherever you look, adventure is waiting, and now one trip that's accessible from Glasgow ( Queen Street Station to be exact) and a train ride to Mallaig has just been named among a top list of adventures from around the world to add to anyone's bucket list.
