2) Alpine Preparation Weekend – click for itinerary
Next week we have our final Alpine Prep weekend on 11-12 June. This weekend is an ideal opportunity to work on your steep ground skills, to build hill fitness, and to check through your equipment. You are led by one of our Alpine guiding team, so can ask anything about your forthcoming trip. The two days guiding cost just £99.

Both these courses train you key skills including mountain craft, using poles, moving efficiently, and they improve your hill fitness and endurance. If you have a trip approaching, and want to boost your skills and fitness, to give yourself the best opportunity of success on your Alpine trip, these weekends are highly recommended.
