About the book
Most of this area falls within Lochaber in the Western Highlands of Scotland – the most popular region in the whole of Scotland with hillgoers, and justifiably so, as it contains some of the most varied and spectacular mountain scenery in the Highlands. The routes cater for those who seek more interesting ascents than standard hillwalking paths. While a number of the scrambles described here have been popular for years and are fairly well worn, many others are little frequented and consequently have a certain pioneering atmosphere about them. Some experience of route finding will be useful in such cases. The majority of scrambles involve lengthy sections of hillwalking in approach or descent, and this should be taken into account when planning an outing.
