The second of two guidebooks to walking Scotland's Munros, this guidebook details routes to 145 Munros in the Cairngorms, northern highlands (north of the Great Glen) and Skye. Volume 1 covers Munros in the southern, central and western Highlands.

Seasons

Munros can be walked year round; but if the midges bite you then avoid summer, and if you are not comfortable on snow then avoid winter.

Centres

Braemar, Aviemore, Inverness, Fort William, Skye, Ullapool, Torridon. Through treks and wild camping also possible.

Difficulty

Munros range from straightforward to virtually climbing, with appropriate skills required. Real mountaineering in winter conditions.

Must See

Stac Polly at dawn, sunset over the western Isles, your big grin after doing the In Pinn.
