  • 3 night guest house accommodation (B&B) with packed lunches on walking days. 

  • 2 walking days

  • use of ice axe, crampons & helmet

  • full instruction

  • transport including pick-up/drop off at airport or railway station.

Prices (per person);     2nt/1 walking day                                 3nt/2 walking days

As these are bespoke trips, the dates are arranged to meet your requirements.  Please call for availability. 

Winter Walking Weeks 

If  you just want to get out in the hills for a few days, then one of our guest-house packages based in the Highlands is the ideal solution. This option provides the opportunity to visit several mountain areas in a single visit to the Highlands.  These are 7-day packages with 5 walking days (normally Wednesday is a rest day) although we can quote for less days if you don't have a week to spare.  Price includes:

  • full-board accommodation.
  • opportunity to refresh skills
  • use of ice axe, crampons & helmet
  • experienced & qualified walk leaders
  • transport
