The Nuttalls are every hill in England and Wales over 2000ft, and Wales alone has 190 of them. From the great ridges of Snowdon (yr Wyddfa) and the Carneddau to the remote moorland of the Rhinogs, the grassy summits of the Brecon Beacons (Bannau Brycheiniog) and the challenging terrain of Crib Goch, this is Welsh hill walking in its fullest form, spanning the complete range of difficulty and landscape the country has to offer.
John and Anne Nuttall's definitive Cicerone guidebook covers all 190 Welsh summits in 49 routes, with detailed descriptions, maps and drawings for every top. As the walkers who first defined the Nuttalls as a recognised list, the authors bring unmatched authority to the subject, and the third edition includes three newly confirmed summits alongside practical information on maps, parking and services for every route.
- The 190 Nuttall summits in Wales are organised into 13 mountain groups (Carneddau, Glyders, Snowdon, Moel Hebog, Moelwyns, Arenigs, Berwyns, Arans, Rhinogs, Cadair Idris, Central Wales, Black Mountains and Bannau Brycheiniog), making it straightforward to plan days out by area
- Detailed route descriptions for all 49 routes cover the full range of Welsh mountain walking, from straightforward grassy ridges to more demanding terrain, with clear guidance on what to expect on each summit
- Maps and hand-drawn illustrations accompany the route descriptions throughout, giving you a clear picture of each summit and the terrain around it
- Definitive Nuttall lists are included for reference, alongside an alphabetical index of all tops and a section covering deleted tops, essential for serious peak baggers tracking their progress
- Practical information for every route includes details of maps required, parking and local services at the start of each walk
The definitive guide to Wales's 2000ft summits, written by the walkers who defined the list. With 190 summits across 13 mountain groups, there's a lifetime of Welsh hill walking within these pages.
The companion volume, The Mountains of England and Wales Vol 2 England, is also available from Cicerone.
