“A man does not climb a mountain without bringing some of it away with him and leaving something of himself upon it”

Martin Conway

Ben Nevis, the highest mountain in the UK is a target of many walkers, and the Montain Track up and down the mountain from Glen Nevis puts the summit within reach of all walkers.

Let out highly qualified instructors take you to the top of the highest mountain in Britain safely and make your day one to remember.

Summits included on this route:

“Today is your day! Your mountain is waiting. So... get on your way”

Dr Seuss

From the Glen Nevis visitor Centre we will climb by the Mountain Track, sometimes known as the tourist track, to the summit of Ben Nevis.

Although known as the Tourist Track, this path should not be underestimated, it's still a long hard days climbing in the mountains.

Each participant will be required to bring suitable equipment for their chosen event, please see Kit List tab above.

Posted by John Scadding on Thursday, 12 October 2017
We plan to walk whatever the weather, unless it is dangerous to do so.

Mountain weather can be a little unpredictable, but we do keep an eye on the forecasts leading up to walks, should the forecast mean that the walk is not possible then we will contact you as soon as we have the forecast and offer you the following options:
- A more suitable walk on the same date taking into consideration the weather conditions
- A transfer to the same walk on another date
- A full refund

Are dogs allowed on this walk?

Question:

Are dogs allowed on this walk?

Answers:

Posted by John Scadding on Thursday, 21 September 2017

Yes, dogs are allowed on all our walks.

However we do cross farmland and common land where animals will be grazing, there will be large sections of the walk, if not all, where dogs will be required to be on a lead.

There are sections of this walk across rough ground and boulders and as such this walk may not be suitable for all dogs.
