16.2km with 270 metres of ascent bike & 12km with 890 metres of ascent walk

Our last walk of the winter season is typically a big one to celebrate the changing of the clocks over to BST. This bike and hike is a long day out in remote country. We cycle the decent track over to the Allt Cam from the Loch Laggan road, then do a circuit of these three high Munros which will probably still very much be in winter condition.

The days will involve a high top, either a Munro or one of our finer Corbetts, so you will need to have previous hill walking experience. Once the snow gets firm enough for winter tactics to come in to play folk need to have the skills to cope with conditions. Our Intro to Scottish winter skills course is recommended for anyone needing to learn the basics or improve rusty technique. All winter High Tops are weather dependent. If there is a high avalanche risk on the slopes we’re planning to go on to we will change the route or the hill. If storm winds are blowing we may have to take in a shorter, lower hill.

Previous winter walking experience, or completion of a recent winter skills course, is an essential prerequisite for these walks.
