Hiking the 282 munro mountains of Scotland in 95 routes

192/282



Ben Hope 3,041 feet (927 m)



This mountain is the most northerly Munro in Scotland and we hiked to the summit on a really blustery day. Earlier that same morning we'd hiked up Ben Klibreck, the second most northerly Munro.



Sadly we didn't get any views from the summit of Ben Hope but on a better… read more

Ben Klibreck 3,156 feet (962 m)



This was a very windswept day Munro bagging in the far north of Scotland across pathless and rugged terrain.



It's achievable for fit hill walkers to tackle both this route and the Ben Hope route in a single day as we did.



The biggest obstacle to this route is… read more

Conival 3,238 feet (987 m)

This was a great Munro bagging day in the historic county of Sutherland in the north of Scotland.

Seana Bhraigh 3,038 feet (926 m)



This was a wonderfully remote walk to bag a solitary Munro.



Some combine routes 4 and 5, maybe with a wild camp but we wanted to incorporate a stay at the Schoolhouse Bothy to the north.



Approaching Seana Bhraigh from this direction involves a couple of river… read more

Bidein a’Ghlas Thuill 3,484 feet (1,062 m)



This was one of my most memorable Munro bagging outings.

Ben Wyvis 3,432 feet (1,046 m)



An isolated Munro, Ben Wyvis is most commonly climbed on its own from Garbat.



I remember the lower paths in the woodland were full of mushrooms!



This route takes you up via An Cabar (the south west ridge).



Ben Wyvis has a good path so it's a great Munro for beginners… read more

Slioch 3,218 feet (981 m)



South of the Fisherfield round, we climbed this Munro on its own from Kinlochewe.



The views of Loch Maree from Slioch are enchanting.



Your eye is pulled to awesome mountain vistas from all angles on the summit. To the southwest you can enjoy views of the Torridon Munros… read more

Fionn Bheinn 3,061 feet (933 m)



This was quite honestly one of the wettest days I’ve ever had on a mountain!



On a good day, views of the Fannaichs over to the north east are stunning. But as the route is very non-technical, it’s often recommended as a Munro to hike on a poor weather day so that… read more

Ruadh Stac Mor 3,314 feet (1,010 m)

Spidean Coire nan Clach 3,061 feet (993 m)

Tom na Gruagaich 3,025 feet (922 m)

Sgurr Mhor 3,235 feet (986 m)



This was one of my favourite hiking days in the north west Highlands. My face on the summit of the first Munro Tom na Gruagaich says it all!



I enjoyed scrambling on the Horns of Alligin (up to Grade 1 with some exposure).



The… read more

Sgorr Ruadh 3,156 feet (962 m)

Maol Cheann-dearg 3,061 feet (933 m)

A’Ghlas-bheinn 3,012 feet (918 m)
