Sample Schedule
This is a typical itinerary but we will vary the programme to suit weather
conditions and your fitness. Because of the small 1:2 ratio we can be
entirely flexible to suit your needs.
| Day 1 | Clach Glas, Blaven Traverse A majestic day on the Matterhorn of Skye, fine weather allows for commanding views across the Cuillin Ridge to take in our objective for the week. |
| Day 2 | Rock Climbing Skills Day We will climb a classic multi-pitch rock climb and look at the skills required to belay a lead climber, tie into belays and self protect abseils in preparation for the ridge traverse. |
| Day 3 | Gear Dump Day A relatively easy day walking up to the main ridge to cache gear in preparation for the traverse. |
| Day 4 | The Ridge Traverse An alpine start from Glen Brittle will see us on the ridge for breakfast time. We will then head South to North to our gear stash and an overnight bivvy on the ridge. |
| Day 5 | The Ridge Traverse Another early start and a another full day completing the traverse, this time carrying our bivvy gear. If all goes to plan we will arrive at the Sligachan Hotel before last orders! |
What have previous clients said?
"Just a quick note to say many thanks for a great week. It was tremendous to gain the benefit of some of the vast experience yourself and Martin have. I found the course to have a great balance and to be fun (most of the time!). Hope to see you again sometime soon and the best of luck in September when you are back up there."
