Highlights

Exploring the Cairngorms in winter is really special. White snow crowns the hills, clear air makes for extra special views and fewer visitors give a sense of solitude.


On this immersive experience you'll get to explore away from the crowds, learning how to safely travel over snow and ice and enjoying the Cairngorms at their most beautiful.


This experience is suitable for novices, beginners and travellers looking for a special experience in the local area. No prior experience of winter mountain walking is necessary and you'll be kept safe and encouraged every step of the way. We'll select a route that will be challenging but achievable and is big on scenery and satisfaction!


Our guides hold the highest attainable qualifications in mountaineering and climbing and are passionate about giving you the best possible experience. We are used to working with complete beginners to highly experienced climbers and from the young, to the young at heart.


We look forward to exploring with you!

Itinerary

  • PH22 1RB

    Winter in Scotland is when the mountains look at their very best. But covered in snow, ice and rime, they can be serious too. Join us on a guided winter mountain walking experience and safely discover the frozen landscape with crampons, ice axes and with an experienced guide by your side. Your day begins in the morning when you'll get to know your fully qualified Winter Mountain Guide during a coffee and a discussion about what to expect during the day. They'll answer any questions you have and supply you with everything you'll need to stay safe. After a short drive, we continue our approach to the high mountains on foot. On the way you'll be given instruction on how to use an ice axe and crampons to move safely in the winter environment and your guide will keep you entertained with information about the areas geology, facts and figures and some of the rare wildlife that has evolved to live in the harsh landscape. Our aim for the day will be to explore a glacial valley or summit one of the high mountains in the area, many of these are on tundra-like plateaus, requiring expert navigation to find. Your guide will safely get you there... and home again!
