Scotland is a country with a huge range of mountain landscapes from the rolling heather clad hills of the Southern Uplands to the arctic plateaus of the Cairngorms and the jagged rock peaks of Torridon and the Isle of Skye. Of the many majestic summits 283 rise above the 3,000ft mark, the famous Munros, and below the summits are shimmering lochs, ancient forests and dramatic rivers. The variety of scenery has something to offer for everyone. There are massive cliffs for rock and ice climbs, long high ridges for hillwalking, rolling plateaus for ski touring, long distance routes through forests, glens and over passes. There is ample opportunity for wonderful wild camps and a network of hotels, hostels, bunkhouses and camp sites. This book covers all this and more and is an excellent resource for those who wish to venture into the mountains. In this book, all Scotland's ranges described, grouped into 7 regions. It offers an overview of the key ascents, long distance routes, access, bases and recommended walking and climbing guides. Scotland (Cicerone World's Mountain Ranges)
