Episode description

Scotland has its own name for mountains - they're called Munros. Well, anything over 3000 ft is a Munro, anyway. There are nearly 300 of them and there's a whole sub-culture in Scotland of people trying to climb them. It's called Munro-bagging.

We asked noted Munro-bagger Garry Stevenson from Being Scottish to tell us all about his experience bagging Munros. In this episode we cover:

  • Scotland's result in the recent Euro Cup
  • How he got into Munro-bagging
  • The hardest Munro he has ever climbed
  • The Munro he'd recommend people start with
