The 284 Munros in Scotland
Listed by the Scottish Mountaineering Club as any Scottish Mountain of 915m (approx 3000ft) and 'elected' to have Munro status. First devised and published by Sir Hugh Munro of Lindertis, Angus in 1871, the original list numbered 276. With improved mapping techniques this list has been revised several times and currently stands at 284.
All are accessible to the average fell walker except one. Sgurr Dearg (or Inaccessible Pinnacle a.k.a. 'In Pin') on the Cuillin Ridge, Isle of Skye requires rope and moderate climbing skills.
(NB. Sir Hugh Munro himself never managed to climb all the mountains that bear his name. He died just one short of completing the task with Carn an Fhidhleir (Carn Eala) proving to be the elusive peak from the original 276).
Scottish Mountain with a summit over 915m (approx 3000ft) and just 30m (100ft) of 'ascent' or 'prominence' on all sides are commonly know as Munro Tops or Murdos.
