Summer in the Cairngorms #rockclimbing #mountainbiking #mountaineering #wildswimming

11th June 2018

A sure sign of how good a summer's been is how often you're swimming in rivers. This summer so far we've been in and out of rivers constantly and it's been excellent.

In amongst cooling off we've had climbing and mountaineering teams out as well as getting lots of personal mountain biking done.

As with most summers, a lot of time is spent on film sets looking after crews who are working in dangerous locations for Mountain and Water Safety Specialists

Check out our great range of winter skills, ski touring and winter climbing courses.

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!
