Descending to the Bealach Toll Easa we journey on to the summit trig point a-top Toll Creagach (1053m). Our reward is a 360˚ view of the Scottish Mountains looking at both coasts from the same spot!

Bein Eigh – WKT2

For the lover of wilderness, Torridon demands respect and grasps the heart. Our traverse of the Beinn Eighe massif takes us into this remote countryside via a superb summit ridge. The remoteness of the great northern corries and the commanding triple buttress, coupled with magnificent views of the neighbouring giants Liatach and Ben Alligin, makes for an incredibly rewarding day.

Cairngorm Corbett – WCG1

Our circular walk leads us through the ancient Caledonian forest to the glacier outflow of the Ryvoan Pass and the picturesque ‘little green loch’. Meall a Bhuachaille (810m) is quickly reached and presents grandstand views of the northern corries of the Cairngorms and the Abernethy Forest to the north. Our traverse of this 3km fine broad ridge is followed by a gentle descent through the pine forest keeping a watchful eye for the rare capercallie.

The Saddle & Sgurr na Sgine – WK1

The traverse of The Saddle (1010m) via the scramble up the Forcan Ridge is a classic mountain route but coupled with the ascents of Sgurr na Sgine (946m) and the sharp peak of Faochag, this is one of the best days out in the Scottish mountains.

Five Sisters of Kintail – WK2

These 5 awe-inspiring maidens rise from beautiful Glen Shiel to 1067m. Glaciation and weathering has transformed their western faces into steep sided glens, lined with fine ridges. We follow the undulating ridge from east to west, staying at eagles eye level for 7km before descending to the shores of Loch Duich and the western seaboard.
