Mountain Walking & Navigation Courses in the Lake District
Our Lake District walking courses can be tailored to fell walkers of all standards and experience. If you are new to the mountains and you’d like to learn hill walking navigation skills from a mountain guide or qualified instructor, call us today! Designed and refined to give you more confidence and independence while walking the Lake District fells – we can help you make your walking holidays even more memorable! If, on the other hand, you want to expand your existing knowledge & skills into the realms of proper mountain scrambling or winter mountaineering, we can help you learn enough to tackle mountain walks in the Lake District and beyond in fair weather or foul; summer or winter: with confidence!
