Winter Skills Courses

My winter skills courses provide a fantastic opportunity to learn essential winter hill walking skills whilst having fun!

Your course will be led by me, a highly experienced and locally-based Winter Mountain Leader. Living just a stone's throw from the Cairngorm Mountains is certainly handy as local knowledge is so important when it comes to rapidly-changing snow conditions and knowing all the best spots for learning in our wonderful, but often brutal, winter classroom.

 

Course highlights

Based out of Aviemore in the Cairngorms National Park.

Small groups (maximum 4 participants).

Complimentary use of crampons, ice axe and helmet included in the course price.

10% discount for returning clients.

Choose between scheduled events, available for individuals to join as part of a small, open group, and private courses, which can be run throughout the winter (December to April inclusive) on mutually-agreeable dates to suit you and your group.

1-day and 2-day courses available.
