Ben Nevis is a very different mountain in winter. Snow-covered slopes, icy paths and changing weather bring new challenges, but also the opportunity to experience Britain's highest mountain at one of its most beautiful times of year.
Whether you've climbed Ben Nevis before or you're looking to take your mountain walking to the next level, our experienced local guides can help you enjoy the winter landscape safely and confidently.
There are two ways to join us. Our Winter Ben Nevis Guided Walks are ideal for walkers who are already comfortable in the mountains and want to experience The Ben in winter with a knowledgeable guide. Alternatively, our Two Day Ben Nevis Winter Skills Course is designed for those looking to learn essential winter walking techniques, build confidence on snow and ice, and put their new skills into practice on a guided summit day.
Make the most of your time on the Ben by raising money for a cause you care about as you climb. Let us know who you’re fundraising for and we’ll help spread the word and maybe even recruit some fellow fundraisers to walk with you! Or, if you’re a charity looking for a zero-investment challenge event for your fundraisers, check out our dedicated Charity Partner Programme.
New to winter mountain walking? Spend two days learning essential skills with our qualified Winter Mountain Leaders. You'll practise using crampons and ice axes, winter navigation, route planning and understanding mountain conditions, before putting your new skills into practice on a guided ascent of Ben Nevis on day two.
Had a blast doing my intro to winter mountain skills, thanks to my guide Dan, great time climbing snowy peaks in Scotland. Couldn’t have been better.
Thanks a million for a great day out! I had a fabulous day with Chris. He was superb. The weather was great too. So glad I did it.
