Undertake the ultimate scramble of a lifetime
- the Ridge Traverse

To do this, you should be an experienced hill walker with scrambling experience.
A ridge traverse is a much more enjoyable experience when undertaken over two days with the bonus of a bivi especially with a star studded sky.
You will need to have a very good level of fitness, stamina and head for heights.

Guided traverses need to be prepared for beforehand.
For example - sections of the ridge such as the four tops of Sgurr a' Mhadaidh should be undertaken before an attempt of the whole traverse. Preparation also includes stashing water and bivi bags to lighten the load!

Prices:

Classic Scrambles: £180 per day (for two people) and £30 for each additional person.
Ridge traverse, 2 day attempt: £450 for one person. (This price includes 3rd day on the ridge before traverse). If more than one person contact Graham to discuss.

Ridge traverse 5 days: £600 for first person and £400 for each additional person
