Trekking & Hill Skills Course
This Trekking & Hill Skills course aims to develop your skills and confidence to enable you to venture away from well marked tourist paths in hilly and mountainous areas of the UK.
This course can be tailored to meet your specific requirements and time constraints. We can focus on teaching all of the necessary skills and techniques or simply go walking and cover as much ground as possible.
