If you are thinking about heading out to the hills for the first time or are an experienced mountaineer, this website will help you. It's crammed full of useful routes, maps, advice and guidance to make the most of the truly amazing Scottish mountain countryside.
As a qualified mountain leader with over 20 years experience of climbing Scotland's mountain peaks, I provide a specialist guiding service that aims to boost your confidence and ensures you get the most out of your days on the hills.
If you want to join one of my planned hill-walks, check out the calendar and get in touch. If you need support in achieving specific munros or peaks, contact me and we can plan a day out to get you there. Also, if you are a family or a group of friends who are keen to have a bit of adventure, I can guide you on a hill-walk that you'll remember. I've also been hired as a 'present' to support the avid bagger get that elusive Munro.
Whatever your mountain guiding requirements, this website and my guiding support will help you achieve your goal !
