Scarcely anywhere else is nature as rich and<br />
abundant as it is on this north-western archipelago.<br />
The wild beauties of the British Isles<br />
are landscapes full of mystery and legend, full<br />
of tragedy and fortune, that once inspired<br />
hosts of poets and have lost none of their poetic<br />
majesty since. Ireland, Scotland, England<br />
and Wales – each region has its own characteristic<br />
features, with all of them sharing a<br />
landscape shaped by wind and weather and<br />
featuring seemingly endless fields and meadows,<br />
picturesque river courses, mysterious forests<br />
and steep cliffs tumbling down into the<br />
sea.<br />
The rugged peaks of the Cuillin Hills, the<br />
highest on the Scottish Isle of Skye, are almost<br />
completely barren. Further down there are<br />
shrubs, ice-blue mountain lakes and wild<br />
streams.<br />
