Programme
January and February are ideal for mixed climbing in Scotland. But one can climb from December until March if the weather conditions are good.
Day 1
Flight from Basel to Edinburgh and onward journey to Aviemore. We stay in a lodging where we cook for ourselves.
Days 2-6
We do our first steps in front of the door in the Cairngorms. Further challenges are to be expected on Ben Nevis, in the Glencoe Valley and on Beinn Eighe.
Based on my experience with Scotish winter climbing and regarding conditions and wishes of my guests, I will choose suitable routes and toures for the participants.
On days of rest participants have several alternatives:
- Visit of a Whisky distillerie with degustation
- A city trip to Edinburgh or Inverness, the portal into the Highlands
- Visit of a local brewery
- ….
Day 7
Transfer to Edinburgh airport and return flight.
Next dates
For 2024 I expect to travel far north.
If desired the date may vary or be extended to 7-10 days.
