Trip round grand land feature (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ridge

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'land feature' is the definition.
'ridge' can be an answer for 'feature' (I have seen 'Feature of mountain' mean 'ridge' so perhaps 'feature' could also mean 'ridge'). I am unsure of the 'land' bit.

'trip round grand' is the wordplay.
'trip' becomes 'ride' (eg a trip in a car).
'round' indicates putting letters inside.
'grand' becomes 'g' (G is short for grand as in a thousand).
'ride' enclosing 'g' is 'RIDGE'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for ridge that I've seen before include "Top of roof or incline" , "Wrinkle" , "there's a lot of pressure in it" , "Narrow raised strip as between hills" , "Line of raised ground" .)
