The Aonach Eagach (meaning 'notched ridge') runs along the northern side of Glencoe and the traverse of the ridge is one of the classic rock scrambles in the UK. Spend an exhilarating day hillwalking and scrambling with us along this spectacular ridge.

General outline of trip :

A walk and scramble along the spectacular Aonach Eagach ridge above Glencoe, bagging two the Munro peaks. Ideal preparation for the Skye Munros ! Due to the slight technical nature of this ridge, our maximum guide to client ratio is 1:4. You'll need a decent level of fitness and a reasonable head for heights as we scramble from Meall Dearg along the ridge to Sgor nam Fhiannaidh. You'll not be expected to use any climbing gear, but your guide will know the ridge well and will have a rope for security should the need arise.

On our 13 April trip, we'll be staying in Glencoe for the weekend, scrambling up the Bidean nam Bian massif on Saturday and heading up Ben Nevis via the Carn Mor Dearg Arete on Sunday (a discount is being offered if you'd like to come along two or more walks this weekend). We can offer pickup from Edinburgh and Stirling for shared cost of fuel and advise on places to stay.

You'll need general hillwalking equipment for the day - a list is here.
