All 2 options are for 7 days and 6 nights, or shorter by arrangement. We’ll pick you up from Edinburgh - Glasgow - Stirling in our comfy minibus and return you there at the end of the trip. Daily drives out to various trail heads and guided hikes to traverse pine-clad glens and summit hills in stunning scenery.
We can advise about a whole range of accommodation from camping pod or hostel, to B&B or hotel.
The hiking will start gently and will progressively become longer, upto 20kms and 1,000 metres a day, dependent on group ability.
You can customise your own hiking trip - just enquire.

Option One
Cairngorms, Scotland
This region is off the very popular tourist routes and is noted for its high hill country and extensive areas of the original Caledonian forest that one-time covered all Scotland. The River Dee flows through the central valley, providing access to a whole range of exciting hill routes. Our daily hikes will enjoy this stunning variety of landscapes, as we access steep, glacial glens to head to the summits of Munros and Corbetts. This is a largely midge-free area.
The budget accommodation is in a comfortable bunkhouse, with self-catering facilities, drying room, close to hotels, bars and restaurants. Local shops supply all your grocery needs. Based in one place means light hill backpacks and being able to chill instead of packing and unpacking every day.
Remnants of the ancient Caledonian pine forest is being revived in the Cairngorms.
Option Two
Assynt, North-West Scotland
Assynt is a rugged region of steep and sheer sided hills dramatically shaped by glaciation. The landscape is littered with lochans and boulders, giving it a very wild aspect. From the summits are very rewarding views of this stunning wilderness and out to sea.
There are plenty of hills to choose from and caves to visit. With a nearby hotel, evenings can be spent relaxing over food and drink.
