Acknowledgements

Thanks to Joe at Cicerone for helping to shape this book; to Verity, Andrea and Georgia, my fantastic editors; to the very talented Caroline, for her great design work; and to my writerly friend, Judy Mills, for all her support.

It was a privilege to hear the inspiring stories of all my contributors; this book is dedicated to them, with heartfelt thanks for being so generous with their time and input.

Running has brought so many friends into my life and I’m indebted to all those I’ve shared the trails with (you know who you are!) Special thanks to Chris for many of the wonderful photographs within these pages and precious memories of shared fastpacking adventures. Without his enthusiasm for crazy capers, this book would not exist.

Updates to this guide

While every effort is made by our authors to ensure the accuracy of guidebooks as they go to print, changes can occur during the lifetime of an edition. Any updates that we know of for this guide will be on the Cicerone website (www.cicerone.co.uk/957/updates), so please check before planning your trip. We also advise that you check information about such things as transport, accommodation and shops locally. Even rights of way can be altered over time.

The non-UK route maps in this guide are derived from publicly available data, databases and crowd-sourced data. As such they have not been through the detailed checking procedures that would generally be applied to a published map from an official mapping agency, although naturally we have reviewed them closely in the light of local knowledge as part of the preparation of this guide.

We are always grateful for information about any discrepancies between a guidebook and the facts on the ground, sent by email to updates@cicerone.co.uk or by post to Cicerone, Juniper House, Murley Moss, Oxenholme Road, Kendal, LA9 7RL.

Mountain safety

Every mountain run has its dangers, and those described in this guidebook are no exception. All who fastpack in the mountains should recognise this and take responsibility for themselves and their companions along the way. The author and publisher have made every effort to ensure that the information contained in this guide was correct when it went to press, but, except for any liability that cannot be excluded by law, they cannot accept responsibility for any loss, injury or inconvenience sustained by any person using this book.

To call out the Mountain Rescue, ring 999 (in the UK) or the international emergency number 112: this will connect you via any available network. Once connected to the emergency operator, ask for the police.
