Warm conditions but a return to winter coming soon #winterskills #wintermountaineerng #winterclimbing #skitouring

26th February 2019

With limited snow cover, fresh flowers in the garden and the smell of Spring in the air it's easy to think winter's over. Well, it's not. As of this weekend it's turning cold again and we'll start to see snow accummulating once more on the mountains.

February has been a good but challenging month for delivering mountaineering courses.  Managing expectations, knowing the mountains well and having an experienced and creative mountaineering team has been key to ensuring we're offering the best training and experiences possible.

We've had over 100 people on our courses during February. Some enjoyed very wintry conditions, others much less so but either way they've enjoyed themselves and left with new skills and mcuh greater mountaineering knowledge.

The only courses we have availbility on are our winter skills and ski touring courses. If you fancy joining us before the season ends, please get in touch.

Let's hope for an 'easier' March!

Winter courses

Terrific, attentive and caring team with great customer service I'm writing a review in March 2020 in the midst of the covid19. I had booked a course right at the time that the pandemic was getting worse and unfortunately had to cancel my trip with Cairngorms Adventure Guides. The Caringorms team were very helpful and accommodating at this time when so many other tour/transport companies were being difficult about their T&Cs. I can't thank them enough of how understanding they were to my particular situation. The customer service team were thoughtful and attentive and this can only reflect that their guides/teachers and company as a whole share the same ethos. I've since then changed my booking for February 2021 and cannot wait to attend!
