Have you ever wondered what a Munro actually is? Munros and Corbett are two classifications of Scottish mountains. It has become a challenge for walkers to hike all of them!

There are 282 Munros to bag, with the current record time standing at 31 days, 10 hours and 27 minutes - an incredibly impressive feat! Corbetts, on the other hand, are slightly smaller and less popular than the Munros but often offer better views than the cloudy heights of 3,000ft. With 222 summits to reach to become a Corbetteer, this is another worthy challenge for walkers. How many have you bagged? ⛰️

Explore the Munros and Corbetts with our guidebooks. Across four guidebooks - two volumes for each type - you can find routes to every one.

You may have been to the UK’s Lake District, but have you been to Austria’s? 🤔

Our guidebook to the area includes 20-day walks that range between 5 and 20km in length - perfect for less experienced hikers and families! The routes vary from lakeside strolls and walks to local points of interest to more strenuous through-routes and ascents of the neighbouring peaks. This is a walking region not to be missed.

We at Cicerone are deeply saddened to learn of the passing of Joss Naylor, MBE, on Friday. Joss was an inspiration to so many, both as a legendary fell runner and through his work as a supporter and a Fellow of Brathay Trust. His legacy will continue to inspire us all. This is a profound loss.

We extend our heartfelt condolences to Joss's family and friends. We share in the grief of everyone who was touched by his indomitable spirit. For those who had the pleasure of meeting Joss, whether as a friend, through his work with the Brathay Trust, or simply through a quiet nod of recognition on the fells, we know he will be sorely missed.

Following the river Rhone from its source near the summit of the Furkapass to the Mediterranean Sea, the Rhone Cycle Route slips past some of Switzerland's highest mountains, skirts the shore of Lake Geneva, laces through Lyon, France's second city, to Port-St-Louis on the coast.

At 859km, this route can be completed in around 10-14 days and is broken down into 20 stages in our guidebook. It also contains detailed mapping, accommodation information and advice on what to (and what not to) take.

Are you trekking the Tour du Mont Blanc or the Haute Route in June?

Whilst we’re approaching summer, It’s important to be aware that snow is still on the ground above 2,000m around Chamonix and the Alps. The Col du Bonhomme, Col de la Seigne, and the Grand Col Ferret are currently under continuous snow and routes over the Col du Tricot and Fenêtre are officially not recommended.

Walking poles and microspikes are recommended for the rest of June, and ensuring snowy areas are covered earlier in the day would be a good safety precaution.

Watch out for snow bridges and hard névé, and keep an eye on the mountain conditions at the Mountain Office in Chamonix or online at: https://www.chamoniarde.com/en/mountain-topics/mountain-conditions #

Stay safe and happy trekking! ❄️
