      Guide to author's favourite hills under 2,000 feet, on the Scottish mainland, including some that are rarely climbed, some that are well-known and iconic, and all of which offer a distinctive hillwalking experience. These are all hills with great character, they have attitude rather than altitude.

      Andrew Dempster has 40 years’ experience of hillwalking the length and breadth of Scotland. Author of several climbing books, including the first guidebook to the Grahams, in this volume he identifies the best wee hills on the Scottish mainland.

      MUNRO at least 3,000ft high
      CORBETT 2,500–3,000ft high with a prominence of at least 500ft GRAHAM 2,000–2,499ft high with a drop of at least 150 metres
      HUGH (Hill Under Graham Height): under 2,000ft with exceptional character

      The Hughs all offer rewarding – and often stunning – climbs and views. Some are already popular. Many await discovery. Each one has great character. That is what the Hughs are all about.

      From Arthur’s Seat in Edinburgh to An Grianan in the far north, from Ben Hiant in the west to Bennachie in the east, the Hughs are a phenomenally diverse range of hills, stretching to all points of the compass. Accessible to people of any age, the Hughs are not defined by the sterile logic of relative height – they are a choice of the heart.
