Ben Nevis Trek

Reach the highest point in Great Britain in this rewarding trek up Ben Nevis (which translates to Mountain of Heaven from Gaelic!!). The trek is not for the faint hearted taking 7-9 hours in total to walk around 10.75 miles ascending 1352m! But the views at the top, the feeling of achievement and knowing you have made a difference will make it all worth it – we guarantee it!
