This relaxed hill walk is a chance to explore the Cairngorms with the support of a local qualified mountain leader. Ideal for those who have got their climbing fix on Saturday but want to balance it off with a bit of an explore on Sunday, taking in the all the highlands has to offer and gaining a deeper connection to this beautiful landscape.
It also works well for those that fancy combining it with a one-day self rescue, relaxed bottom-roping or scrambling course, resulting in a nice and versatile weekend!
