The trio of majestic peaks stand in the heart of the Scottish Highlands, each distinct in character and allure.<\/p><p class=\"MsoNormal\">The three Scottish mountains consist of Aonach Dubh, Beinn Fhada and Gearr Aonach and have long been a source of inspiration for artists, hikers, and adventure seekers. These mountains are the perfect place to find solace!<\/p><p class=\"MsoNormal\">Beinn Fhada towers at an impressive 3,386 feet and has a rugged landscape of secret valleys, hidden peaks, and savage cliffs. At 2,263 feet is Gearr Aonach, the next mountain in the trio and is a complex climb, filled with many ridges and subsidiary peaks. Finally, Gearr Aonach, the shortest but no less captivating, provides a less demanding route for those who wish to explore this stunning but dramatic landscape.<\/p><p class=\"MsoNormal\"><span
