Join us for an inclusive week in the mountains.
On this course we are looking to develop your skills, knowledge and understanding of the mountain environment.
When joining this course, there are no pre-requisites.
You may be a complete beginner wanting to experience the mountains and be guided for 5 days in the mountains, or you may have some prior knowledge and are wanting some improvement and development to progress forwards into your own adventures.
We can run the week on a bespoke basis and tailor the programme towards your aims.
The 5 days are split down to allow focus on each element of mountaineering:
Climbing: 2 days
Scrambling: 2 days
Navigation: 1 Day
Example itinerary:
Day 1: In the mountain environment, we will complete a fell walk and look into the following techniques:
Day 2 & 3: Scrambling, progress from grade 1 to roped scrambles
