Isle of Skye

Traverse of Collies Ledge, Sgurr Mhic Coinnich

Duration 5 days ~ You need a few days to be sure of a weather window in order to have real shot at the ridge. Over the five days of this trip we’ll also take the time to do some training on the rock with abseiling and basic climbing techniques featuring heavily. This is the single most demanding mountain expedition of its kind in Scotland and as such requires a high degree of mountain fitness, good movement on exposed ridges and some abseiling experience. We will advise you on the first two days of the trip as to suitability and safety. If the weather, or your own fitness, makes the traverse impossible then we’ll tackle the most difficult sections of the ridge as day trips over the following days. One thing is for sure ~ if your up for it and the weather is right then we’ll get you along it! We base this trip in Applecross at Caol Mhor Guest House and run our training sessions on the local crags. When the weather is right we’ll nip over to Skye and bivouac overnight during the traverse attempt.
