Maria’s Scottish Winter Mountaineering Trip 2018
February 10, 2018 @ 8:00 am - February 14, 2018 @ 5:00 pm
ravel up on Saturday 10th Feb or Sunday 11th February and stay 3 or 4 nights, leaving on Wednesday 14th Feb 2018.
Staying at Aviemore SYHA Map ref OS 36 (GR893119) telephone no: 01479 810 345 email: aviemore@syha.org.uk
Plans are to climb in Coire an t-Sneachda, Coire na Lochain and Hell’s Lum – there are plenty of Grade 1 and 2 climbs, so good introductory climbs and lots to push the grade. Some big Grade 3, 4 and 5s as well, so good stuff for the bold. The walk-ins are quite easy, a drive up to Cairngorm car park, then about 1 to 2 hour walk in on reasonably easy ground for the nearest routes.
The hostel has kitchens and you can bring your own food. Plenty of shops in Aviemore to buy food if you need to. The Skiing Doo is the cheap bar/restaurant we will go to during the trip and we normally finish off with a big night out at one of the hotel restaurants on the last night (Tuesday).
For those who are keen, book yourselves in to the Hostel and then arrange a lift.
You cannot miss this trip!
Maria.
