Wandelgids Peak Bagging | Vertebrate Publishing
Wandelgids Peak Bagging | Vertebrate Publishing
Over fifty years ago, renowned British hillwalker and guidebook author Alfred Wainwright described 214 peaks in the English Lake District in his seven-volume illustrated Pictorial Guide to the Lakeland Fells. Like the Munros in Scotland, bagging all the Wainwrights has become a popular and significant challenge for walkers and runners, often taking many years in fits and starts because of the absence of a clear plan for how to link them together. With this problem in mind, Peak Bagging: Wainwrights by Karen and Dan Parker features forty-five routes designed to link up these iconic fells so you can enjoy the challenge of completing them at your own pace - over years, months or even just a few weeks.   It presents not only the most efficient routes for completing the Wainwrights as quickly as possible, but does so in such a way that each route is a fantastic walk or run in its own right. The featured routes include a round of the Scafells, and the Glenridding Horseshoe, taking in Helvel…

Reisgids Scottish Island Bagging | Vertebrate Publishing
Reisgids Scottish Island Bagging | Vertebrate Publishing
Erg mooie gids met aandacht voor 154 Schotse eilanden die de moeite waard zijn om te bezoeken.   Scottish Island Bagging by Helen and Paul Webster, founders of Walkhighlands, is a guide to the magical islands of Scotland.   Focusing on the ninety-nine islands that have regular trips or means of access for visitors, plus fifty-five other islands which have no regular transport but are still of significant size or interest, the authors have described the best ways to experience each one. Of the islands featured, many are household names – Skye, Lewis, Bute – while some, such as the isolated St Kilda archipelago and the remote Sula Sgeir, will be unknown to all but a hardcore few.   When it comes to things to see and do, the islands of Scotland have it all. Wildlife enthusiasts can watch out for otters, orcas and basking sharks, while birdwatchers in particular are spoilt: look out for the rare corncrake on Islay, sea eagles on Mull, or sight puffins, gannets, storm petrels and many othe…

Wandelgids 2 Walking the Corbetts: Volume 2 | Cicerone
Uitstekende wandelgids, goed beschreven met veel praktische informatie om de route te kunnen lopen, inclusief redelijke kaarten. This guide describes routes up all 109 Corbetts north of the Great Glen. The Corbetts offer challenging ascents and descents on steep slopes. The Corbetts (Scotland's 2500-2999ft mountains) are every bit as interesting as the Munros (3000ft and over), often clear when the Munros are in cloud, walkable on short winter days, free of the peak-bagging crowds of their taller neighbours.   Walking the Corbetts is divided into two volumes. The guide covers the Corbetts to the north of the Great Glen, which runs from Fort William to Inverness and includes those in Knoydart, Applecross, Torridon and the isles of Skye, Mull, Rum and Harris. Choosing the best, rather than the quickest, routes up each summit the author covers 109 peaks in 90 routes, illustrated with custom 1:100,000 mapping.   South of the Great Glen it is the Munros which attract most attention, but al…

Over 130 years ago, mountaineer Sir Hugh Munro published the first list of Munros ? Scottish mountains with a height over 3,000 feet ? and inspired the hobby of Munro ?bagging?, a pastime which combines rugged adventure on a personal and literal journey around the Scottish Highlands with a nerdy compulsion to maintain a ticklist. Peak Bagging Munros Volume 1 by Nicola Hardy (Munroist number 6,765) features 64 routes designed to link up the 141 most southerly Munros so you can enjoy the challenge of ?compleating? them at your own pace ? over years, months or, in rare cases, even just a few weeks. It presents not only the most efficient routes, but does so in such a way that each route is a fantastic walk or run in its own right.   The featured routes include the iconic Ring of Steall and Ben Nevis via the Carn M?r Dearg Ar?te, alongside classic entry-level walks up the likes of Ben Chonzie, Ben Lomond in Loch Lomond and the Trossachs and Mount Keen in the Cairngorms. To assist you in building an itinerary, the routes are split into ten Highland hubs which include Glencoe, Fort William, Braemar and Pitlochry. These are chosen to be easy to access and with decent public transport links to help you make environmentally sustainable choices when you can.   Base yourself in a Highland hub for a long weekend or a lengthier stay, springboard to Munro routes from each hub and return to access the recommended local facilities including shops, pubs and cafes. In addition, the book is packed with useful information, including 1:40,000 scale maps, elevation profiles, route directions, public transport and parking details, refreshments, downloadable GPX files for each route, and custom timings for walkers, trekkers, fastpackers and runners. Along with stunning photography, there are rest day suggestions, accommodation ideas to suit multiple budgets and a series of supportive indices through which you can find suitable walks, whatever your current level of hillwalking experience.   Whatever your timescale for compleating Scotland?s Munros, Peak Bagging Munros Volume 1 is the indispensable guide to this Scottish hill challenge.
