Season turning

28th October 2021

The seasons are definitely turning here in Aviemore and the Cairngorms. We've had a busy season of work, with a mix of rock climbing and hill walking groups as well as working on lots of TV and film productions. With so many missing out on winter last year it feels as though this winter is going to be pretty busy as most of our courses are already full and it's only the end of October. As always our winter skills courses are proving popular. These give you the skill set and confidence to get our winter hill walking: https://www.cairngormadventureguides.co.uk/winter-courses/winter-skills Hopefully we'll have some great skiing like last season. Our intro backcountry ski touring courses are ideal for anyone looking to get into ski touring: https://www.cairngormadventureguides.co.uk/winter-courses/intro-to-ski-mountaineering Hopefully we'll see you on one of our courses or out in the hills.

Winter courses

I completed the 2-day winter skills course with John followed by a 2-day winter climbing course with Dave. Can't recommend these two courses enough. Both John and Dave delivered two brilliant courses especially given the lack of snow! The winter skills course was informative and provided great foundational information on hiking safely in winter conditions. This led perfectly into the winter climbing course where Dave was extremely flexible given the conditions and my minimal climbing experience. We covered loads over the two days including leading, abseiling and belaying, to name a few. A great few days in Aviemore. Thank you Dave and John!
