The Munros are
Scotland's largest mountains and although they
may not be the highest in the world they certainly
have one of the greatest followings.
The Munros are mountains which exceed 3000ft
in height and there are 282 in total throughout
Scotland. They bring millions of walkers
from all over in the world in a bid to "bag"
them all .
They take their name from Sir Hugh Munro who
first produced the list all the way back in
1891.
There are
an estimated 4000 completions from all
over the world and this number will
continue to grow as many more to add
their name to the list. Whether
climbed in the spring, summer, autumn
or winter every Munro has a unique character
and guarantees the walker a fantastic
experience and allows you to discover
areas of Scotland you didn't know existed
so... Grab your boots and hit those
hills!
