Tourists complain there is no 4G on top of Ben Nevis saying it is ‘too tall’
Tourists have been left ‘disappointed’ after climbing Ben Nevis because ‘there was no 4G’ anddolla they ‘couldn’t even get a McDonald’s there’.
Although highest mountain in Scotland it has breathtaking views and attracts more than 100,000 visitors a year, some think a supermarket is needed to spruce up the place.
Tourists have now taken to TripAdvisor to pool together clever ideas in the hope to revamp this lack-luster outdoor attraction.
One visitor tried to ascend the mountain on a mobility scooter, together with her partner on a wheelchair and wrote on TripAdvisor: ‘After four-and-a-half hours laying on the path, a lovely family took turns carrying me up the mountain.’
But upon reaching the top, she found only more disappointment.
She said: ‘Not a single shop. I almost died getting to the top, and I couldn’t even get McDonald’s there!’
Another visitor had a hard time hiking with his buggy chair and said: ‘I had hoped for a ramp system that would travel me to the top, but there wasn’t.’
He even suggested government action to make the trail easier: ‘At the very least reduce the height of the mountain, it is simply too high.’
Another unfortunate visitor found the hike a little too challenging and wrote: ‘Even the sheep looked miserable.’
Adding: ‘About three quarters of the way up my patience with my wife blew away too, if you have to take someone take a dog, as they can’t moan that their legs hurt.
‘The whole trip has cost me all of my hiking gear and a divorce.’
A man went even further and used the mountain to reflect on the whole country, and said: ‘Lacked 4G signal in many places, basically this mountain sums up Scotland as a whole.’
And when he finally reached the summit, another unexpected surprise and he added: ‘Also there was snow on the top I don’t like snow.’
Another reviewer complained about the crowdedness of the path, and suggested there should be a ‘high way’ coming up or down.
