Schiehallion

Should you ever find yourself in Perthshire with a bike, can I recommend a cycle around Loch Rannoch and at the far end of the loch a wee detour to Rannoch station where there is a rather excellent tearoom. About 34 miles in total but the views are so fabulous (and the cakes so delicious) that you won't mind at all. Great for birds too - stonechat, wheatear, jay and osprey. The view here is of the mighty Schiehallion famous for being where Charles Mason conducted an experiment in 1774 to estimate the mass of the earth.
