Torridon (gd|Toirbheartan) is a small village in the Northwest Highlands of Scotland. The name is also applied to the area surrounding the village, particularly the Torridon Hills, mountains to the north of Glen Torridon. The village lies on the shore of Loch Torridon.
Torridon is on the west coast of Scotland, 109miles north of Fort William and 80miles west of Inverness. Situated in an area well known to climbers, photographers, wildlife enthusiasts, hikers, and visitors from around the world, the surrounding mountains rise steeply to 3500feet from the deep sea lochs. There is a hotel, The Torridon, and a youth hostel.
The loch is surrounded by numerous mountains to the north, including Liathach, Beinn Alligin and Beinn Eighe, all of which are over 3000abbr=offNaNabbr=off in height. Specifically, they are:

Torridon hosts the annual Celtman Extreme Triathlon since June 2011.[1] It is considered one of the most challenging triathlons in the world.[2] The 3.4 km swim takes place in Loch Shieldaig while the 202 km bike leg is notable for the strong winds affecting competitors. Finally the 42 km run takes in two Munros during the race over the Beinn Eighe range.[3]
