That this House congratulates the city of Inverness on being named the top city in Scotland for outdoor enthusiasts, according to a new study by train operator LNER; notes that the study ranked 71 towns and cities on family-friendliness, sustainability, culture, outdoor experiences and food, with Inverness leading the table for its outstanding outdoor opportunities; celebrates Inverness’s reputation as the gateway to the Highlands, offering easy access to world-class walking and cycling routes, lochs, trails and mountains, as well as natural beauty within the city itself, including the Ness Islands, Merkinch Local Nature Reserve and the Inverness Botanic Gardens; and recognises the value of this accolade in attracting tourism, supporting local businesses and celebrating the unique identity of the Highland capital.
