Scotland · WINTER ACTIVITIES
Good winter activities fill up weeks ahead; the great ones go first. Below: the 2 to book early, what each includes and how they differ.
Winter day trip from Edinburgh to Lindisfarne, Alnwick, and Bamburgh, with driver-guide narration, comfy coach, and castle views.
“I like the fact that this tour takes you to various places in England from Edinburgh. Highly recommended tour especially if you like medieval history. Love it!”
Private guided winter mountaineering in the Cairngorms from Aviemore, with top safety, full gear, and hands-on rope skills.
“Sam is the best guide I’ve ever had in my decades of winter mountaineering. He’s the safest guide I know who continuously assesses risks throughout the day. He is also a fantastic teacher — I’ve learned more from him in one day than with others in a week, from seconding to leading techniques for different situations to avalanche assessment. I’ve climbed with him in the summer and winter and he’s the first guide I would go to for any future trips.”
Every kind of day out, from an hour under the Old Town to a week in the islands.
