Introduction to Winter Walking
INTRODUCTION TO WINTER WALKING

The rugged mountains of the United Kingdom offer a unique challenge when it comes to walking in winter conditions. The unstable weather patterns mixed with the variable temperatures we experience throw up some unique and unexpected challenges along with some surprisingly spectacular rewards. This has earned the mountains within the UK the reputation as being the perfect training ground for preparing mountaineers venturing out into the European Alps as well as the worlds greater ranges.

Whether you choose to learn to navigate confidently to your first winter summit, spend a night in a snow hole or weave your way up a gully and carefully cut your way up through a cornice, the one thing is that our highly qualified and experienced instructors will help you develop the skills, technique and confidence you’ll need to gain the most out of the winter mountain environment. So why don’t you come and join us and share a few memories that you’ll never forget.




“We had an amazing couple of days venturing out into the in the snow. Our instructor was really professional and taught us everything we needed to know” Phil & Katie, High Wycombe


During the winter months when the hills and mountains are covered in snow and ice are at their most impressive. Venturing out in winter is the most logical step from summer mountain walking, and to feel confident venturing above the snow line you need to have specific winter skills. Over the course you will cover a wide range of skills from kit choice, navigation, route planning and how to effectively use crampons and an ice axe.
