The Mountains of England and Wales

Welcome to my
Mountain Website

This is a website for hill walkers and summit-baggers, attempting to provide accurate Ordnance Survey grid references for the 2000ft mountain tops, and prominent lower hills, of England and Wales.

There are many recognised lists of hills and mountains in Wales and England - some of the main lists are covered by this website, as well as a list of county tops.  Click on the appropriate link on the adjacent map.

You can use this website to log your own progress against these lists - simply register a Username and Password (free), and follow the instructions on the registry page.

You will also find a page of hillwalking tips, a photo-gallery, a mountain search facility, and downloadable files for each mountain area containing GPS waypoints for the summits.

Please contact me with your comments or suggestions about this website, or sign my Guestbook.

What's New - recent changes to this website

22nd Jul 2008	New facility to add your own markers to a map, save them for future use, and copy them to file for upload to your GPS.  Look for the pale yellow bar below the map on the mountain list pages (you must be a registered member of the site, and be logged in, to use this facility).
2nd Jul 2008	Summit of Botley Hill (Marilyn - region 42) relocated. Domen-ddu demoted from Dewey list - reascent is only 24.3m (survey by J Barnard, M Phillips, D Purchase and G Jackson). Two newly identified "double sub"-Hewitts, Craig Wen and Fan Bwlch Chwyth added.
23rd Jun 2008	Grid reference for last position clicked on the map is now displayed (and printed) below the map, so you can use it (e.g.) to mark the start point for a walk (thanks to Des Taylor for the suggestion).
6th Jun 2008	GPS ID column added to list pages, so you can use it to cross-reference GPS files downloaded from this site (thanks to Des Taylor for the suggestion).
5th Jun 2008	Glossary page added, listing hill-list abbreviations used on the site (thanks to Peter Cullom for the suggestion).
4th Jun 2008	Cracoe Fell replaces Thorpe Fell Top on the Marilyn and Dewey lists - a survey by J Barnard, G Jackson and J Jackson revealed the former to be 1.84m higher.
15th May 2008	Wales and England sub-totals now given for the Marilyns, Hewitts, Deweys and HuMPs on the My progess page. Thanks to Steve Dixon for the suggestion.

4th Oct 2007	Great Yarlside demoted from Dewey list following excellent survey work by John Barnard and Graham Jackson revealing reascent is only 28m.
3rd Sep 2007	As a result of recent surveys, 2 new mountains have been added to the Nuttalls list, and one existing mountain has been removed, so the total is now 442.  See the Nuttalls website for further details.
