Isle of Skye Trip – Winter Climbing or Winter Walking

Please book your own accommodation for this trip

Skye can justifiably claim to have some of the most amazing mountains in the whole of the British Isles. Winter conditions in the Cuillin are very special and always make for memorable days out.

We’ll travel up on the Monday and down on the Friday to give us three full days on the hill.

The instructors will be based at the Skye Basecamp Hostel in Broadford. This base gives us the option of getting to all the Greater Cuillin areas or, if we have to, getting back to the mainland if conditions are best over there.

Skye Trip – Winter Walkers - Cost: £230

If the Cuillin are in winter condition Bla Bheinn, Bruach na Frithe and Sgurr nan Eag are our preferred choices of hills to do over the three walking days. If conditions are more wintery over on the mainland we might do at least one day over there instead, probably in either Applecross or Glen Shiel.

Skye Trip – Winter Climbing/Mountaineering - Cost: £285

There are lots of amazing winter climbing and mountaineering routes to be done in the Cuillin. We’ll probably do at least one day on the Glen Brittleside of the range and another in the Bla Bheinn area. However, using Broadford as a base gives us access to Glen Shiel or Applecross if conditions are better on the mainland.
