Please note that in order to participate in this course you must have registered with Mountain Training Scotland prior to the start of the course.
Our most demanding courses. A very high level of fitness is required over many hours. Rough terrain and hostile weather conditions will be encountered. You will be required to carry safety specific equipment which will make your rucksack significantly heavier than it is for summer day hikes.
Max distance 15km, max ascent 1000m per day.
This course is a syllabus based course and full details of the course content can be viewed at the Mountain Training website.
The main areas covered include:
