This Munro makes for a great winters day for those looking to gain more winter experience. We will be refreshing skills throughout the day.
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                      What the day includes -
A long and gradual ascent to reach this summit starting off with a landrover track which takes us up onto the moor. Here we have a gentle gradient which pulls us up to just below the summit.
We will be working on our movement and winter skills as we ascend and descend, ensuring you get the most out of the day.
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                             The final summit push is a steeper gradient but nothing too challenging. This is an out and back hike so we will retrace our steps the way we came.
                                                                                                                                                                                                                            You must supply your own B2 Winter boots for this event, you can hire these from the likes of Tiso.
