Testimonials “We had fantastic sunshine for the first two days and saw Glen Coe at its best from Buachaille Etive Mor and Bidean nam Bian.  It was so relaxing to be able to walk and enjoy our surroundings without having to worry about navigation.  When the weather deteriorated on the last day we were disappointed not to be doing the Aonach Eagach ridge but I felt confident that Alan had chosen a safe route appropriate to our ability and the prevailing conditions.”
