Ben A'an, Trossachs, Scotland

A mountain in miniature: Ben A'an is barely 454 metres, climbed in about an hour, yet its rocky little summit delivers a full Highland panorama over Loch Katrine that mountains three times its size would envy. It's the perfect first 'peak' for children or the chronically deskbound. Combine with a steamship cruise on the loch below and you've had a complete Scottish day.
