This newly delineated guide describes some of the best scrambles
and easy rock climbs in the North-West Highlands of Scotland, the
Outer Hebrides and Rum. With 200 routes stretching from Sutherland
in the north to Glenfinnan in the south, and from Uist in the west
to Caithness in the east, its scope and range offer scrambling
options across all levels and rock types. Keen hillwalkers can
build their confidence on straightforward itineraries with a bit of
exposure, and there's plenty to whet the appetites of those who
already have some experience and want to explore new territory on
sustained, technical journeys requiring greater commitment. From
the elegant bands of Lewisian gneiss that comprise much of the
Outer Hebrides and the northern hinterland of Ben Stack and
Foinaven to Torridon's terraced sandstone cliffs and the pinnacled
ridges of An Teallach, there are many hidden gems to discover.
You'll also find updates of well-established and much-loved
classics, including the Forcan Ridge, Stac Pollaidh and the Rum
Cuillin. Presented in our new contemporary style, Highland
Scrambles North includes high-resolution photo diagrams and
beautifully rendered maps for greater clarity and accessibility.
With venue and route information accompanied by advice on
conditions, this guidebook has everything you need for a superb day
out in the Scottish mountains
