Going on to Spean Bridge to use up some time while my wife got her hair done, I headed on up to Roy Bridge and took the single tracked road out into Glen Roy. I had no idea the little road would stretch so far into the desolate hinterland. The road was tight, crumbling badly above steep drops down to the river. Where boulder strewn rivers raced down the mountainside to the road, cutting deep ravines were around four bridges that looked like they were at the point of collapse. Loose hanging girders underneath, fallen away side barriers, a broken up deck. I really had no idea if my heavy SUV would make it across without the bridge falling apart below me. But I did make it and carried on, and on, and on. In reality not so far as my speed was limited to 15-20 mph by very tight corners, blind summits and wild sheep. I don't think I exceeded 40mph anywhere. But why go any further at all. I was just getting to my furthest point when I got a text message from my wife to say her hair would be finished in just 10-15 minutes. Typical! Just when I was beginning to enjoy having a good explore
Nowhere in Scotland can the dramatic effects of glacial ice on our landscape be seen more clearly. The glory of Glen Roy National Nature Reserve (NNR) is that you can easily spot the pattern of the Parallel Roads and other Ice Age landforms.
For centuries, great thinkers and geologists pondered the mystery of how these deep lines – or ‘roads’ – were gouged into the hillside. The solution to the puzzle is that a series of ice-dammed lakes formed and drained at the end of the last Ice Age. Combined with the other glacier-linked landforms – such as river fans, terraces and landslips – they create a geological wonderland.
Spend time in this vast landscape and appreciate the tremendous forces of nature. You may see red deer, ravens, buzzards and the occasional golden eagle. Pockets of native birch and oak woodland along the river and on the slopes are rich in spring flowers
