It's probably just me, but I've never understood why people ask 'ground condition' questions.

Arch Inn and The Seaforth.

Not a watch, but a basic Garmin Etrex 10 would do the trick. You won't know total ascent until you upload your route to your computer though.

Costs under a £100 and less faff than a watch.

See your GP and get a referral to the physio. Don't let them palm you off with painkillers if it's a constant problem.

The article says she has 'banked' 50 munros for her next round. So If I was to camp at the bottom of a mountain do it 30 times in a row, move onto the next one and do it again, etc etc, would that be 30 rounds after I had been round them all? Pretty much. It's useful for the far away Munros. Like n...

The rangers at Marr Lodge had over 60 fire pits to fix this year.

No need for it at all!

It's pretty much impossible to list all walks due to endless route options. But you can tick off sections of recognised long distance routes such as the Scottish National Trail.

Before my time, but Peter Kemp talks about Nancy's a lot in his book: Buy Of Big Hills and Wee Men.

If you're travelling within the UK rail network, you'll be fine. But plenty shops to buy gas in Aviemore.

The litter on the hills is quite frankly outrageous particularly in honey pot areas. it's getting worse. Plastic, banana skins, fag butts, wrappers etc. Folk can't even toilet right in the hills without leaving a mess, discarded toilet paper and I even seen a dumped sanitary towel next to the path i...
