Our guides are experienced keen climbers who love spending time in the hills in winter. From complete beginners to seasoned old hands looking for a climbing partner we can tailor your day around you. We will guide all routes from grade I to grade V or even harder for those that desire.
Once we have received your enquiry we will discuss with you your aims and objectives for the day. A few days beforehand your guide will be in touch to firm up plans based upon the snow and weather conditions. On the day itself expect an early start and a full day out in the hills.
This is for anyone who has previously done any summer or winter climbing and wishes to be guided up a fantastic route.
