Winter climbing in Highlands, Ben Nevis and Cairngorms

The Scottish winter offers an infinite number of adventures to be had on the ice. The variety is inmense, from the ice falls and frozen turf of the Southern Highlands, the vast plateaus and granite crags of the Cairngorms to the snow ice of Ben Nevis.

I have been exploring this environment for over 18 years. I have therefore an excellent knowledge of where to go in all conditions. Besides, private guiding allows you the opportunity to maximize your time on the hill. Which means more fun time!

This program is aimed for all keen hill walkers, skiers, scramblers and climbers. You don't need previous winter experience.

Some common venues in this are Glencoe, the Southern Highlands, Glencoe, the Northern Cairngorms and Lochaber. Also, pleas note I can travel to your base.

Below there is a list of common objectives.

•  The traverse of An Teallach, Liathach and the Aonach Eagach

• Ben Nevis mixed and ice climbs such as Vanishing Gully (V), Point Five Gully (V), Green Gully (IV) Tower Ridge (IV), and Number 3 Gully Buttress (III)

• Southern Highland routes such as Central Gully of Ben Lui (I), Taxus (III) and Peter Pan (V)

• The mixed climbs of Cairngorm, such as Shadow Buttress A (IV), Route Major (IV) and The Milky Way (III)
