Alpine Hike Training Weekend 18 and 19th May 2019

Our training weekends are designed to help you explore the mountains safely and give you the skills necessary to be more independent when trekking in the UK or overseas. They are suitable for beginners or for those just wanting to refresh their skills and knowledge of the mountains before a big trip. Similarly, seasoned trekkers will benefit from the training associated with long days on the mountains.

Our alpine hike training weekends are based in the Snowdonia national park and offer the hiker the opportunity to experience routes and effort expected in the alpine environment. Each day consists of a reasonably long, quality mountain day, tailored to the capability of the group. Our guides and leaders focus on:

• Efficient hiking
• Navigation
• Decision making in bad weather
• Moving on steep ground
• Use of trekking poles
• Basic emergency management

Note: Group sizes for this trip are 4 (min) - 10 (max) people.
