WALKING THE WILD SIDE
Ben nevis is the united kingdom's highest mountain, hundreds of people go up and down every day but few people get to see what this special area really has to offer.
One of our most popular experiences is our day and a half walk from glen Nevis. We will set off at around 3pm and walk through the Steall Meadows and catch a glimpse of the famous Steall falls, from here we will walk up into the watershed of Ben Nevis and camp for the evening. As you watch the sun set around the surrounding mountains and wilderness you will begin to experience one of the UK’s true dark zones, this means that there is no light pollution! The stars are truly amazing here and it is not uncommon to see the odd shooting star, meteor shower or the aurora borealis. You don’t need to worry about dinner as it’s included in the price and we will fill you full of hot chocolate as you get ready to settle in for the most peaceful night’s sleep you will ever have. In the morning we will wake up, eat some breakfast and break camp. From there we will walk up on to the summit of Carn Mor Dearg our first Munro of the day and on to the Carn Mor Dearg arête. This arête is described by Walk Highlands as “the finest way to see Ben Nevis” and they are not wrong, the spectacular arête gives fine airy views of the 600m north face and it is not unusual to not see a soul until we reach the summit of Ben Nevis. It truly is the wild side! Once we have climbed Ben Nevis we will walk down to the Ben Nevis Inn and relax for the rest of the afternoon while you can look back on what we have managed over the past two days.
We have some space left on a Walking The Wild Side trip on the 20-21st of September, these spaces are half price!!!!!! only £150.00 per person!!
If you don’t have time for our overnight trip, the Carn Mor Dearg arête is a great one day walk, by starting at Torlundy and walking up Carn Mor Dearg and the arête. This way you won’t miss out on seeing the north face in all its glory!
