The 'Ben' is the highest mountain in Scotland and the UK rising to an impressive 1345m above sea level.  She sits proud above the lively town of Fort William in Lochaber and dominates the skyline when not shrouded by its usual crown of clouds.  Ben Nevis has an interesting history including being a victorian tourist destination with a hotel on the summit.  Today only ruins remain of the hotel but people from around the world still come most days to hike up and stand on the the highest part of the British isles. The Ben Nevis tour will pick you up from Edinburgh or Glasgow and whisk you up to the highlands where we will have an introductory hike up the lost valley in Glen Coe. (Usually 2-3 hours ) We will then proceed to a camping site just below the mighty Ben, where we will eat heartily and then get a good rest before our big day.  On day two you will hike up the challenging 1345m over 17km (not so easy) If we are lucky we might get a good view from the top too.  Sadly we cannot guarantee that the summit will be reached due to weather, conditions or fitness.  However we will make sure that we do everything possible to make you have a great experience. 

Inclusions: A Qualified, experienced, knowledgeable guide., A wealth of information and stories about History, folklore, geography, geology etc mixed with plenty humour., Awesome views, photos and life changing experiences.  , Campsite fees, Lots of walking, Pick up and drop off from Edinburgh., Tent, Stove, pots, plates, cutlery, cups.

Exclusions: Food and drinks, Please don't worry if you haven't got all the gear on the list. We will stop by a great outdoor store and a supermarket on our way to the Highlands and you can pick up anything you need. Alternatively for the more expensive items you can rent from us, just look for the (R) symbol. ,  1 fleece or similar mid layer,  1 warm preferably Primaloft or Down Jacket (even in summer temperatures on the Ben can plummet into minus degrees),  2 pairs of thick hiking socks,  2 wool or synthetic base layers,  3 season B0 Hiking boots with ankle support,  Camping Mat preferably Inflatable (R) (£10 for sleeping bag and mat),  Daypack, I would recommend 35 litres so you can fit in extra layers, water and lunch.

I work as a National Park Ranger in Skaftafell, Vatnajökull national park. Within the national park is the largest glacier in Europe. I have always looked at the glaciers in awe and known that I needed to acquire the skills to have access to them. I have known Dan, Mike, Bjartur and Marco for almost two years and I have always had great confidence in them and there for I knew that they would be the perfect people to learn from. All of them are highly skilled in their field and showed great professionalism. You can clearly see how passionate they are about their work and spreading their knowledge. I took the course Hard Ice 1 and all in all it was an excellent course, excellent company and I would highly recommend Pict Expeditions!

Definitely had an excellent time on this tour and with our guide, Ryan. He was very knowledgable about Scottish history relating to the places we went to and passed through. In these strange times and amidst several restrictions, we still feel like we were able to enjoy the beauty of the Scottish Highlands during this three day trip. A must-do if you're visiting Scotland and want to get as much as you can from your time.
