The comprehensive book "Scottish Mountains: A Planning Resource for Adventurers" is an invaluable guide for those seeking to explore the Scottish mountains. Covering all mountainous areas from south to north, the guide is divided into seven regions, each with its own glens, hills, and individual hills of significance. While it does not provide detailed route guides, it aims to inspire and entertain, as well as inform, first-time visitors and provide a new perspective for those who have been before. Author Chris Townsend offers his opinions on the relative qualities of the walks, glens, lochs, mountains, and landscape, highlighting those he considers the best the area has to offer. The book includes descriptions of all the Scottish mountains, area-by-area, to help you identify the best locations for hill walking, mountaineering, climbing, and ski touring. It also features classic ascents and walks, from scrambles up Ben Nevis to ski tours in the Cairngorms, making it a valuable planning tool for long-distance treks.
