A brand new hillwalkers' guidebook from the SMC, written by Iain Young, Anne Butler and Heather Morning.
From Angus in the south to the farmland of Moray in the north, the forests, moors and lochs of North-East Scotland lead upwards to a vast plateau of tundra studded with glacier-carved corries and glens – the Cairngorms. Here, across an expanse of 8,000 square kilometres, lie not only several of Scotland’s best and highest Munros but a wealth of Corbetts, Grahams and many other outstanding hills, each distinct in character.
Route descriptions for all the listed and notable hills are accompanied by colour maps, and sublime imagery showcases the region in all its moods. With their unique climate, geology and habitats, these hills teem with the histories of countless bygone land dwellers, climbers, walkers and wildlife, and you will also find extensive insight and points of interest to deepen your understanding and appreciation of this remarkable corner of Scotland.
The book is available to pre-order now and the Scottish Mountaineering Press will be hosting a launch event at this year's Fort William Mountain Festival.
