I'm thinking of taking up mountaineering. Which of London's peaks can I climb without oxygen?

I gather there are several real challenges in London Alpine terms: Denmark Hill, Tulse Hill, Primrose Hill, Herne Hill, and perhaps Mt Pleasant? Have I missed any? Are these all scaleable without needing oxygen? I prefer the direct unaided ascents myself.



What about sherpas??

Never attempt Primrose hill, with out strict training, A frapochino and a wheat free muffin, it could be disastrous
Reply:Shooters Hill (132m) Muswell Hill and more at http://www.timeout.com/london/features/2...

I prefer taking the bus, there's a lot of Asian bus drivers as a sort of Sherpa substitute.
Reply:I'd give Denmark Hill a go, not withuot the o2 though. It's a bit gross round there. BUUUT, you will always have Kings College on standby for oxygen, so maybe you could try it without?
