Designed for those with experience of summer hill walking, this 4 day course introduces winter novices to the techniques and equipment required to venture into the mountains under snow or icy conditions and allows you to apply your new found skills on the best of the West Highland Munros.

If you enjoy more exciting mountain routes in summer and want to be able to enjoy similar routes under winter conditions, this is the course for you.

The reality is that under winter conditions, the UK mountains can be killers. With temperatures as low as minus 20 degrees and visibility down to the end of your nose, the ability to stay on track and away from danger is not just an advantage, but essential.

A 2 day mini break with a difference. Here at Mountain Sense, we have fond memories of our first nights spent in a snow hole. You will too, but hopefully for different reasons!!! Learn how to spend a comfortable night in your own self-dug snow cave, whilst blizzard conditions pummel the mountain outside.
