Description - Walking Ben Lawers, Rannoch and Atholl: Mountains and glens of Highland Perthshire by Ronald Turnbull

A guidebook to 80 walks in the highlands of Perthshire. Exploring the beautiful scenery of Scotland's south-eastern Grampians, the walks are suitable for most walkers, with shorter routes alongside plenty of more challenging, full-day hikes. The routes include 42 Munro ascents, 22 Corbetts, 15 smaller hills and the Gaick and Minigaig passes.

The walks range from 3 to 45km (2–28 miles) and can be enjoyed in 1–13 hours. April to August is the best walking time for all routes, with April and May the best of all. Highlights include Ben Lawers, Rannoch Moor and Schiehallion, and the routes can easily be accessed from Perth and Crianlarich. Other centres include Comrie, Crieff, Aberfeldy, Killin, Dunkeld, Pitlochry and Blair Atholl.

  • Either 1:50,000 OS or 1:100,000 maps are included for each route
  • Routes are graded by length and difficulty
  • Notes on local transport, accommodation and facilities
  • Comprehensive advice on access during the deer-stalking season
  • Sized to easily fit in a jacket pocket
