WINTER GUIDING
"Every mountain top is within reach if you just keep climbing"
Barry Finlay
Scottish winter walking, climbing, skiing and avalanche courses run from December to April. Abacus Mountain Guides provides all these courses on Ben Nevis, Glen Coe and all over the West Coast of Scotland. If you want to do some guided winter walking or learn the skills you need to explore the hills in winter on your own, our select group of instructors will guide you through new skills on real, adventurous and challenging routes.
Ben Nevis
Walking up Ben Nevis in winter conditions is tough but also incredibly rewarding. Take the challenge and climb the UK's highest mountain with us this winter.
