Winter Mountaineering in Scotland

Winter in Torridon & Applecross! A blend of the most spectacular & diverse scenery in Scotland set in a coastal mountain wilderness. These North West coast mountains are breathtaking. Numerous fresh water and fjordlike sea lochs create a varied and spectacular landscape like no other; dissecting the mountains of Torridon, Kintail and Fisherfield.

Our courses based in these areas aim to gain you access to the numerous high summits, gullies and ridges offering a blend of guided mountain days with skills and safety learning.

If its pure mountain skills training you're after then you can now join our Cairngorm Plateau Expedition for a full immersion into the winter environment.

We also have a number of short weekend options if you have little time but want to make the most of it. In particular our off season weekends are extremely good value for money.

Whatever you choose you can be assured of a safe and informative trip in our local wilderness mountains where you can benefit from our local instructors with their local knowledge of the area.
