Corbetts

This page contains notes and news of direct interest to Corbetteers - keen hillwalkers in Scotland who keep a record of the Corbetts they ascend. The current list of Corbetteers can now be accessed using our new database. One can search for names by surname or number, and even see who has a photograph attached. Background information on the Corbetts can be found in Hillwalking - Key Facts . Incidentally, the archaic spelling compleation is often used here, as a nod both to Izaak Walton's book 'The Compleat Angler', and a compliment to another noteworthy sport - Corbett-bagging.

Note that we can now accept photographs of you on your final Corbett summit and we provide a listing similar to that maintained for Munroists. The rules are as for the Munros i.e. one photo only, on your last Corbett summit. Corbett completions should be sent to The Clerk of the List:

David J. Broadhead
Cul Mor
Drynie Park North
Muir of Ord
Ross-shire
IV6 7RP

Enclose a SAE to ensure a reply. Mr Broadhead, The Clerk of the List, is always interested in how long you have taken, the first and last hills, age, and plans for the future.

Please see the notes on submission of photographs laid out on the Munros Page. We do not, at least for the forseeable future, provide numbers for those finishing the Corbetts; the date is however recorded.
