Conquering Ben Nevis
Standing at 1,344 metres (4,406 feet) it may seem tame when compared to Kili, Toubkal or the Alps but make no mistake; Ben Nevis will test any walker! As the trek starts at sea level, Ben Nevis is always a challenge but the rewards are simply spectacular with the Isle of Mull, Isle of Skye, Glencoe and the Cairngorms all visible on a clear day. Climbing steeply up, the landscape gradually transforms from verdant glen to a true wilderness reaching the highest point in Britain before returning triumphant but tired to our hotel.


Pure Adventure!
Fort William boasts a wealth of adventurous activities which will put thoughts of sore legs to one side! Experience the beauty on countless other organised walks, or why not try your hand (and feet!) at some of the optional activities on hand. There's ice climbing in the biggest indoor ice wall in the world, mountain biking to really explore the fantastic scenery around Ben Nevis or canyoning to test your nerve. Alternatively, give your legs a rest and take to the loch on a sea kayaking expedition. The only time you want to be sitting down is on the bus back to the hotel!


Comment

A short and exhilarating adventure, packed with activity. You'll need to be in good shape for the long and challenging Ben Nevis walk but the sense of achievement will make it all worthwhile. A fantastic way to spend a weekend!
