Peak bagging [ edit ] Ben Hope is the most northerly Munro Buachaille Etive Mòr's north-east face The triple buttresses of Coire Mhic Fearchair on Beinn Eighe Sir Hugh Munro himself never did complete all the ascents; at the time of his death he had omitted Carn an Fhidhleir and Carn Cloich-mhuillin (which was demoted in 1981 and which he was saving until last as it was nearest to his home). He never climbed the Inaccessible Pinnacle ("In Pinn") on Skye but this was not regarded as a Munro on his original list - being omitted in favour of the lower summit of Sgurr Dearg from which it protrudes.
Personally, I wouldn’t say any criteria that make climbing one mountain ‘better’ than climbing any other because what one person thinks is a great Munro can just as easily be at the bottom of the list for someone else.

There are a couple of routes to the summit but it’s the most-used path (otherwise known as ‘the tourist route’) that you’ll probably walk unless you’re a hardened outdoors adventurer. That being said, I’d never venture on a hike without a paper map in my bag as mobile phones have a big downside in that their batteries run out, whereas you’ll always be able to use a paper map. There are actually two Ben More’s in Scotland, but when the name is mentioned most people immediately think of the peak located between Loch Lomond and Loch Earn. The Munro I’m including in this list, however, is instead the one on the Isle of Mull which is my favourite west coast island. Munros". Scottish Mountaineering Club. 2018. The list of distinct Scottish peaks of 3,000ft (910m) and over, of "sufficient separation" from their neighbouring peaks. The list that was originally drawn up by Sir H.T. Munro in the Scottish Mountaineering Club Journal in 1891 was unfinished at the time of his death. Munro did not write down a precise definition of what he meant by "sufficient separation", though the character of a mountain did enter into it. Through regular use these hills have become known as the Munros.

The current Munro list contains 282 peaks. The SMC maintains the list of Munros. In recent times the list has only been altered to reflect updates to nationally recognised topographic data (i.e. data recognised and adopted by the Ordnance Survey). We record all such changes as hill news. Munro Tops are the list of distinct Scottish peaks of 3000ft and over, that fail to meet the criteria of "sufficient separation" from their neighbouring peaks (see above). There are currently 226 Munro Tops. The Scratch Off Munro-bagging Print is part of our Collect and Scratch range and shows all of the 283 Munro hill tops including their heights, covered by a scratch-off latex. This allows you to document each one you have 'Bagged' by scratching off the foil to reveal some colour underneath. Also featured on the map is a tally that you can update with a dry wipe pen as you go along so you can see how many more you need to 'Bag'. On 18 September 2011, Alex Robinson and Tom O'Connell finished a self-propelled continuous round on Ben Hope in a time of 48 days, 6 hours and 56 minutes. At the age of just 21, Alex became the youngest person to have completed a continuous round without the use of any motorised transport.
