Have been on three trips (Wild Camping Snowdonia, Lakes District, Brecon Beacons) with them. After two years travelling all over Europe, would have to say these trips have been definite highlights! Our guide was friendly, evidently highly experienced and all the trips have been well-organised and fun. The groups are a good size, and a great option if you want to get away from the city. Highly recommended!

"One of the best learning experiences ever!"" She was able to quickly identify our weak points and developed great practices and exercises on the run for us that helped us to improve swiftly! her knowledge and way of teaching is simply the best, she takes care of you and ensures your safety at all times. As I say to all of my friends (from novice skiers to ambitious ones) if you want to improve your ski skills, don´t loose time with other schools! just call these guys."
Juan, Advanced Ski Touring
"She is a brilliant teacher and was very kind and patient with their different strengths and weaknesses." "Her kind attitude gave them all a lot more confidence on the slopes too which was exactly what we were looking for. We will certainly be recommending you"" and will return next year!"
Hannah, Intro to Ski Touring, Chamonix
"A huge thank you to you."""Highly recommended."

Day 1 (usually Friday) is all about arriving in Fort William and getting you kitted out for the exciting weekend to come.
Once prepped you'll meet the rest of the gang, have a bite to eat, before hitting the hay so you're ready for a big day tomorrow (perhaps after a quick whiskey at the bar)
Day 2 is when you'll learn the skills needed to take on the mountains in winter time!
It's all about ice axes, crampons, mountain weather, and moving efficiently and safely through challenging environments. Proper adventure stuff!
The setting is sublime. Perched high on the mountain, you'll be moving across the snow with an epic view over the valley below.
After roughly 6 hours out and about, it's back to town for some grub.
Day 3 and its time to bust out the big guns!
You'll be working together as a team to tackle this beast. The climb is challenging enough to make it a real accomplishment when you get to the top, but very doable with lots of breaks to catch your breath, eat a Mars Bar or 5, and snap a few killer selfies.
The notorious CMD Arete could be in the cards but can get a little spicy, so can only be attempted in the right conditions.
After an honest day of hard graft on the mountain it's back to Fort William to celebrate.
