Climb some of the finest ice and mixed climbs in the UK on our annual Ben Nevis CIC Hut Weeks in March!
Winter has returned to the Scottish Highlands with a vengeance. A cold polar air mass is on it's way, so winter looks to stay with us for the foreseeable future.
Why not join us on one of our 6 day Winter Climbing Courses based at the CIC Hut on Ben Nevis. The hut is very well heated, has great drying and cooking facilities and hosts a great sense of community amongst the visiting climbers. It makes for a comfortable base for the course. Perhaps best of all, the winter climbs on Ben Nevis will be on our doorstep, so the approach will be nice and short! The first day is used to buy food and head up to the hut, followed by five days of 1:2 instruction and guiding on classic Ben Nevis ice and mixed routes.
We have eight spaces over two separate 6 day courses for people with previous winter climbing experience.
