Top 500 Summits Dartmoor Climbers’ Club Guidebook


Pretty simple, this book contains the highest 500 mountains in Britain and Ireland that have a minimum drop of 500 feet on all sides.


This guide isn’t just any old list, it also tells the personal journey of Barry, the author, over all 500 summits, including contributions from other walkers who have shared in some of his adventures. This could be the next great challenge that hill walkers aim to complete, and it’s one that can be put aside for many years and returned to as time allows. It includes all of the most popular summits, such as Ben Nevis, Snowdon, and Scafell Pike, as well as a many more household names.


Save embarrassment in social situations by reading the cultural etiquette section.


Anyone completing the Top 500 Summits challenge will also have completed the Munros and Corbetts, with only a few additional days of walking.
