Long Scrambles & Easy Climbs Reviews

 

Once again a fantastic week with Rob on ‘Long scrambles and easy climbs’. My initial nerves of the first day soon turned into absolute joy as somehow, the legs and arms remembered what they needed to do! In spite of some pretty daunting weather, Rob used his considerable experience to circumnavigate the worst of it by getting us to climb on sheltered routes or by whisking us off to another area out of the rain shadow. Thank you Rob, and see you next year! By Sian W on Sep 14, 2025

This was my third course with Rob and his crew, and again I had a great time. Even in awful weather the guides stay cheerful and encouraging and always know which routes are still possible. I can fully recommend their courses.
