A Scottish broad mountain valley, often referred to as a "glacial valley," is characterized by its wide, U-shaped formation created by glacial erosion during the last Ice Age. These valleys typically feature gentle slopes, fertile land, and stunning landscapes, with rivers or streams flowing through them. They serve as important habitats for wildlife and are often used for agriculture and recreation. Notable examples include the Great Glen and the valleys of the Highlands.
