Guided Scottish Winter Climbing

Have you ever wanted to climb classic winter routes in Scotland?

This course is designed to give you a taste of some of Scotland's finest winter climbing routes.

Route choices and grades will depend on ability and objectives.

This is a privately guided course either 1:1 or 1:2 but we recommend both of you must know each other and have similar objectives, fitness and have climbed together before. Climbing beautiful but demanding routes will require you to have good hill fitness, it is required that you have had experience climbing and moving in winter conditions.

Be prepared to be moving 5-8hours and averaging no more than 10-12kms a day unless we choose to do a longer journey day then we may average 15kms. We will be stopping to learn new skills and discussing and observing the environment and of course plenty of time to take photos of the beautiful mountains around us.
