The Donald Hills and Tops is a hill list that includes summits in the Scottish Lowlands over 2000ft, but with the remainder of the definition being open to imterpretation. So basically it’s either on the list, or it isn’t.
There are 89 Donald Hils and 51 Tops as of October 2019.
According to Wikipedia:
The Donalds are mountains in the Scottish Lowlands over 2,000 ft (610 m), amongst other criteria. The list was compiled by Percy Donald in 1935, and is maintained by the SMC. Whether a high point is a Donald is determined by a complicated formula which also contains qualitative elements around “sufficient topographical interest”. The formula necessitates the splitting of Donalds into Donald Hills and Donald Tops. In general, all Donald Hills have a prominence over 100 feet (30.5 m), but the prominence of Donald Tops can range from 16–220 feet (4.9–67.1 m). Donalds can be Corbetts or Grahams and the SMC state that: “Percy Donald’s original Tables are seen as a complete entity, unlike the Munros, Corbetts and Grahams.” There are 140 Donalds, comprising 89 Donald Hills and 51 Donald Tops.
Our list below includes every walk on Mud and Routes up the Donald Hills and Tops. We’re adding more routes on a weekly basis.
You can sort these to show the Donald Tops by Mountain Range or Region as well as alphabetically – we’ll be adding a filter soon, as well as the ability for logged in users to ‘bag a summit’ and a Donald Top Map.
