The sentence requires a passive infinitive to describe landscapes that exist and can be discovered within the UK. "To be found" correctly conveys that these varied landscapes are present and available for visitors to encounter.

Answer: B. to be found

The structure "the sheer variety of landscapes to be found" uses the passive infinitive to indicate that landscapes exist in a state of being discoverable. This contrasts with active forms like "finding" (C) or perfect forms like "to have found" (D), which would imply a completed action by a specific subject. "To find" (A) is grammatically possible but less natural here, as the focus is on the existence of landscapes rather than an active search for them.
