This is a list of Corbett mountains in Scotland by height . Corbetts are defined as Scottish mountains between 2,500–3,000 feet (762.0–914.4 m) in height with a prominence of at least 500 feet (152.4 m); solely imperial measurement thresholds.

28-407: A prominence below 30 metres (98 ft). Note that topographical prominence is complex to measure and requires a survey of the entire contours of a peak, rather than a single point of height. These tables are therefore subject to being revised over time, and should not be amended or updated unless the entire DoBIH data is re-downloaded again. The default table ranking is by height, so where the table
42-560: A prominence that exceeds the P600 threshold of 600 metres (1,969 ft), which would class them as "Majors". The highest Corbett, Beinn a' Chlaidheimh , at 914 metres (2,999 ft) is just below the threshold for a Munro, a status it held until it was demoted in 2012 based on new surveys; it ranks as the 478th highest mountain in the British Isles , on the Simms classification.

The DoBIH uses the following codes for the various classifications of mountains and hills in the British Isles , which many of the above peaks also fall into: suffixes: = twin As of 31 December 2023, 7,654 people had climbed all 282 Scottish Munros, as of April 2020 eleven people had climbed all 1556 Marilyns of Great Britain, while as of October 2022 only five people had climbed all
84-445: Is therefore precisely a list of the 2,756 Simms in the British Isles (as at October 2022). Many classifications of mountains in the British Isles consider a prominence between 30–150 metres (98–492 ft) as being a "top", and not a mountain; however, using the 30 metres (98 ft) prominence threshold gives the broadest possible list of mountains. For a ranking of mountains with a higher prominence threshold use: Despite using

112-538: The greatest prominence is Goat Fell at 874 metres (2,867 ft), which ranks it as the 16th most prominent mountain in the British Isles . Climbers who climb all of the Corbetts are called Corbetteers , with the first being John Corbett himself who completed them in 1943. The second completion was by William McKnight Docharty in May 1960. A list of Corbetteers is maintained, which as of July 2018, totalled 678. This list
126-557: The lower threshold for prominence of 30 metres (98 ft), the UIAA threshold for an "independent" peak, one Scottish Munro is missing, namely Maoile Lunndaidh whose official prominence changed to 11 metres (36 ft) in 2014; As of October 2018 , the list of 2,754 British Isles Simms contained: This list was downloaded from the DoBIH in October 2018, and includes all British and Irish peaks with
140-453: The most important metrics for the classifications of mountains by the UIAA ; with isolation a distant third criterion. The list is sourced from the Database of British and Irish Hills ("DoBIH") for peaks that meet the consensus height threshold for a mountain, namely 600 metres (1,969 ft); the list also rules out peaks with a prominence below 30 metres (98 ft) and thus, the list
154-493: The next category down from the Munros and Munro Tops in terms of height ( i.e. below the elevation threshold of 3,000 ft or 914.4 m), but their explicit prominence threshold of 500 feet (152 m), ensure they are material peaks. By definition, all Corbetts, given their prominence, are Marilyns . The SMC keeps a list of Corbetts. As of October 2018 , there were 222 Corbetts in Scotland. 21 of these 222 Corbetts have
