As of June 2019, this is the list of the 282 Munros, recognised by the Scottish Mountaineering Club ("SMC") and The Munro Society. The Munros are listed by "Section" per the Munro's Tables, and in descending order of height within each section. Hills are divided by sub-region, and hills with less than 200 m (656 ft) relative height (or prominence) are indented. The term Real Munro is used for hills with a prominence above 150 m (492 ft), which is the threshold for a Marilyn. For a single table of all 282 Munros, or all 226 Munro Tops, ranked by height and by prominence, see the "List of Munro mountains in Scotland".
