Liathach
This iconic mountain stands proud over glen Torridon and is one of those mighty tick boxes on all mountaineers tick list. We will cover both Munros on this day with even the chance to have a go at the Pinnacles.
This is a full day on the mountain with some very challenging aspects however the rewards are amongst the best of any mountain in the UK

Beinn Damph
One of the classic Corbetts. This cracking mountain stands just short of Munro height and gives amazing views throughout the whole glen due to its unique position. With a stunning walk in and a great walk out this mountain will have you leaping for your Corbett check list to see what else is out there at this height
Departure: 8.30am

Over Night Bothy Trip
Scotland is a very special place and one of the most magical ways to experience it is a night away in the hills in a secluded bothy. This expedition will see you travel into a remote bothy where we will take in a hill and then drop down to our bothy for the night. We will then spend a night with the stove roaring and the fire blazing before wrapping ourselves up in our sleeping bags.
The next day we will walk out and you are promised to see Scotland at its greatest. No great amount of walking experience is required just a sense of adventure.
Departure: 8.30am

Beinn Eighe
This mountain is steeped in history and it is one of the biggest days out in the Torridon glen. The day will take in both Munros and will also take you through the famous Corie Mhic Fhearchair.
This is another full day on the mountain but again the rewards are worth every minute.
Departure: 8.30am
Level: High
Beinn Dearg
This iconic hill has been in the papers over the past few years as people decided whether it was a Munro or not. Finally it was measured and found to less than a metre short of Munro height. However that is possibly what makes this mountain so great.
Not being a Munro and being just slightly off the beaten track this mountain offers a unique day out with very few if any paths and a little bit of everything once on the hill you are guaranteed to be asking to give the hill Munro status just for being so good.
Departure: 8.30am
Level: High

Photography Walk
If you are a budding photographer or someone who just enjoys taking pictures whilst out in the hills then this is the walk for you. You will be spending a day with a professional landscape photographer who will take you through all the techniques for creating that amazing picture of your day on the hill.
No special camera equipment is required, just bring your own camera and find out what it can do.
Departure: 9am
Level: Low
Beinn Alligin
Known for its Horns and rightly so this mountain boasts two Munros and unsurpassed views of Liathach and Beinn Eighe. Your walk will take in both Munros and even the Horns whilst also enjoying unique views of the stunning West coast line.
The final big day of the festival but defiantly the big bang to go out on
