Attaining the summit of the mighty Ben Nevis, the highest peak in the UK, in winter conditions is an amazing experience and is not an undertaking for the fainthearted!

It is cold, can be very windy and has a substantial snow covering! It is almost unrecognisable from the summer.

Event Details

This is a 2 day challenge; 1 day learning essential skills for walking in wintery conditions, using an ice axe and crampons safely and correctly and covering basic winter navigation techniques and 1 day walking Ben Nevis.

A typical itinerary looks like this:
