Gaelic for “the notched ridge”, the Aonach Eagach is Scotland’s most legendary grade II scramble which traverses high above the Glencoe valley. Famed as the narrowest ridge on mainland Britain, it links up two munros, and provides several spectacular sections of scrambling. The whole day is about 10km long, this is an ideal scramble if you are quite new to mountaineering.

Ben Nevis is well known as the highest mountain in the UK, but it’s incredible North Face is a better kept secret! Tower Ridge is one of Scotland’s most prized mountaineering routes. It is included in the book “Classic Rock” which is a collection of the UK’s “best” rock climbs. Tower Ridge provides 600m of impressive scrambling, culminating in the notorious “Tower Gap” just before the summit. The approach takes about 2.5 hours, followed by about 3 hours of scrambling. We have several options for descent, including “Ledge Route”, the tourist track, or completing a loop around the Carn Mor Dearg (CMD) arete. There are many famous ridge scrambles on Ben Nevis, with Tower being only 1.
