Munros

The Munros are the mountains in Scotland over 3,000 feet (914.4m), with 282 spread across the Highlands. They’re named after Sir Hugh Munro, who first published the list in 1891, distinguishing main peaks from subsidiary “tops”. Climbing them is called “Munro Bagging”, and completing all 282 earns the title of “compleater”. The highest is Ben Nevis at 4,413 feet (1,345m), but even lower Munros can be tough because of rough terrain, long approaches, or unpredictable weather.
