Download The Mounth Passes: A Heritage Guide to the Old Ways Through the Grampian Mountains AudioBook Free
The Grampian mountains stretch out across a considerable portion of northeastern Scotland. The term Grampian is a corruption of the Gaelic "gruaim" or gloomy, and "beinn" or hill. Thus, the Grampians are the Gloomy Mountains, so-named for the clouds that frequently shroud the mountains in mist. Since time immemorial, people have handed down through these misty mountains as they journeyed between your Scottish lowlands and highlands. The old ways through the mountains - the Mounth goes by, as they are collectively called - are the subject of the book. Twelve streets are profiled, from the Causey Mounth on the eastern coast to the Monega Move deep in the heart of Scotland. Each path is known as from an historical point of view, followed by helpful information to walking the road (or what remains of the road) today.
