Glen Roy (Scottish Gaelic: Gleann Ruaidh, meaning "red glen") in the Lochaber area of the Highlands of Scotland is a glen noted for the geological phenomenon of three loch terraces known as the Parallel Roads of Glen Roy. The terraces formed along the shorelines of an ancient ice-dammed loch that existed during a brief period (some 900–1,100 years in duration) of climatic deterioration, during a much longer period of deglaciation, subsequent to the last main ice age (the Devensian). From a distance they resemble man-made roads running along the side of the glen, hence the name. Much of the glen is designated as a national nature reserve.

(en) Glen Roy est une réserve naturelle nationale, située dans la région de Lochaber, dans les Highlands en Écosse. Elle est connue pour sa géologie particulière et ses trois « Routes Parallèles », replats taillés à flancs de coteaux, qui sont en fait les lignes de démarcation préservées d'un ancien lac glaciaire. L'intérêt pour les Parallel Roads est toujours d'actualité. De nombreux scientifiques sont toujours intrigués par les processus géologiques et géomorphologiques qui ont construit ce paysage et de nombreux touristes sont également attirés par cette merveille de la nature.
