In pictures: Scotland’s mountain highliners

A group of friends have taken the sport of highlining into some of Scotland’s most stunning landscapes.

Inverness-based Owen Hope, 25, and Lizzie Wood, 26, along with Michael Ross, 30, who lives in Glasgow, all have backgrounds in climbing.

Highlining involves walking on a long piece of webbing anchored at two points high above a gap such as a gorge, while harnessed to a back-up safety line.

Last month, the friends rigged a highline over a gully between Sgurr Fiona and Lord Berkley’s Seat, rocky features on the An Teallach ridge in the Highlands.
