winter mountain courses

winter private guiding 

We frequently arrange private guiding in Scotland, often as an add on or as a precursor to one of our courses. You might wish to spend some time having 1:1 instruction, or it could be that you have a specific ridge or gulley climb in mind or grade that you would like to achieve.

Please contact us to discuss your aspirations and we will be more than happy to put together a programme for you and provide a quote. We can also arrange guiding outside of the main Scottish winter season.

Following on from a week on a Winter Mountaineering course, you might like to benefit from 1:1 guiding and try a classic grade IV or V route on Ben Nevis.

Following on from a Winter Mountaineering course, you might like to benefit from 1:1 guiding and try a classic grade IV or V route on Ben Nevis.

Guiding | technical & non technical - is also available on the basis of all our main stream courses at any time to suit clients on a one to one ( one to two etc.) basis @ £ 150 – 190 per person  per day - depending on the grade of mountaineering / climb / mountain walk / trekking etc.

We have in place a sliding scale for extra persons are charged £ 30 or £ 50 extra per person per day up to a maximum of 8 or 4, depending on the technical level of activity.

THE NUMBERS GAME!

It does sometimes happen that the pre-dated course numbers are low. In this case - if you wish to book on a course as an individual - we will give you the option of booking and paying the same course fee as quoted above BUT for a reduced number of days. In this way you will find that, while the costs remain the same, you will get a more in depth level of instruction in a shorter time - maybe saving overall on accommodation costs. Or if you wish you can take the chance - pay Private Guiding fees for a 1:1 or maybe 1:2 ratio - on the chance that others will join the course - in which case we would charge the going rate for the course of your choice. We have put this in place to make matters clearer and easier for the clients who telephone us to ask if courses are actually going to run - and how many others there are on a course.
