There are a total of 282 Munros in Scotland and bagging them all is a huge challenge – equivalent to climbing Mount Everest 14 times – completed by only the most dedicated walkers and climbers.
It’s thought that less than 7,000 so-called 'compleatists', or Munroists, have finished the epic challenge to date, making it a fairly exclusive club.
Many of the peaks can be scaled by anybody with a reasonable level of fitness, but some are more challenging prospects suitable only for those with experience and a head for heights.
Here are the 10 Munros that are the most difficult to tick off your list.
Before you set out on any expedition make sure you are aware of the latest advice from Scottish Mountain Rescue and plan accordingly.
9. Liathach
Towering in the middle of the Torridon Hills, in the northwest Highlands, Liathach actually comprises two Munros - Mullach an Rathain and Spidean a' Choire Leith. Both have steep ascents, while traversing the ridge linking the two requires a real head for heights, with sheer drops seemingly in all directions. Photo: Canva/Getty Images
10. Beinn Mheadhoin
In the heart of the Cairngorms (as its name - meaning 'middle hill' suggests), Beinn Mheadhoin can also claim to be very much in the middle of nowhere. There's no speedy way to reach it, with a hike of nearly 20km required before you ascend the tricky summit. Photo: Canva/Getty Images
