Experience the adventure of the Skye Cuillin

The Black Cuillin of Skye are the most dramatic and challenging mountains in the UK – a jagged skyline of sharp ridges, souring peaks, steep cliffs and gullies raising straight from the sea. This legendary mountain range offers an unforgettable adventure for mountaineers, scramblers and climbers alike.

Whether you are looking to summit iconic peaks like Sgurr Alasdair or the infamous Inaccessible Pinnacle, take technical sections of the ridge like the Thierlich-Dubh Gap (TD gap to its friends), take on classic climbs like the Cinch or attempt the full Cuillin Ridge Traverse, the terrain demands solid movement skills, a good head for exposure and sound decision-making. That’s where we come in!

As a qualified mountaineering and climbing instructor with deep local knowledge, I’ll help you move efficiently through this complex and demanding environment – maximising your experience, building confidence and keeping the stress low (except for the fun kind!). Days are always tailored to your goals, experience and the conditions on the ground.

From classic ridge scrambles like Pinnacle Ridge on Sgurr nan Gillean or the Blaine Cach Glas traverse and guided Munro day to rock climbs or full ridge traverses and bespoke coaching, I can offer flexible options to suit your goals and experience for Skye’s famous mountains.
