Course durations can vary to need, however we insist on a two day minimum to ensure there is sufficient time to explore ideas and allow time to consolidate. The costs are set out as day rates.
We can base these courses in the same areas as our winter skills courses, these include the Lake District (conditions allowing), Nevis range and the Cairngorm's National Park.
Straddling the world between winter walking and climbing is Mountaineering. More than a walk out, but not requiring quite as much kit as a climbing day, these days are not to be underestimated in its seriousness of undertaking.
Over the course of the days you book we will introduce you to new skills, like how to tackle ridges, short technical steps and getting up steep snow slopes safely.
