Guidebook to walking the northern Munros, covering the northern Highlands, the Cairngorms and the Isle of Skye. 70 routes are described, including those up Ben Macdui, Braeriach and Cairn Gorm. Routes range from 7 to 46km, requiring a fair level of fitness. The second of two guidebooks to walking Scotland's Munros: peaks higher than 3000ft.
A guidebook presenting 70 routes visiting 143 of Scotland’s 282 Munros (mountains over 3000ft). Covering the northern Highlands and the Isle of Skye, the hikes require good fitness and navigation skills plus experience in remote mountainous terrain: while many are straightforward ascents, some involve scrambling, rock climbing and river crossings.


The routes range from 7 to 46km (4–29 miles), with the option to reduce walking distance on some of the longer routes by cycling the approach.




Part of a 2-volume set: an accompanying Cicerone guidebook, Walking the Munros Vol 1 – Southern, Central and Western Highlands, is also available
Clear route description illustrated with 1:100,000 mapping
Notes on maps, parking, accommodation and access for each route
Lists of all the Munros (by height and alphabetically)
Pronunciation and translation of Gaelic mountain names
