Ever considered climbing the highest mountain in Britain? Well now you can!

At 4,406 ft Ben Nevis is the highest mountain in Britain; it attracts climbers and walkers from all over the world all year round. On a clear day at the summit it gives outstanding views over the Highlands & Western Isles, which can only be described as breathtaking.

The route begins with the old pony track that starts from Achintee in the beautiful and scenic Glen Nevis (The movie location for Braveheart & Rob Roy) and crosses the flanks of Meall ant Suidhe to the halfway lochan. From the lochan the track makes a series of uphill zigzags over increasingly bouldery ground, which leads to the extensive summit plateau where remains of the old observatory can be found.

Not only can this be considered as a great personal achievement, but you will also help promote and raise much-needed funds for your Charity by taking part in this superb two-day package. The weekend starts for you on Friday afternoon where you will be met and collected at your pickup location in Glasgow, you will then be driven by luxury coach or minibus depending on numbers to the Highland town of Fort William.

On arriving at Fort William you will be taken to your accommodation at one of our chosen Hotels in Fort William where you will be given time to settle into your room which will boast en-suite facilities, colour TV, radio and direct dial telephone. Once settled there will be a welcome meeting to brief you on your two day stay in Fort William and introduce you to your guides who will be looking after and accompanying you on the walk.

Once the formalities are over you can then enjoy an excellent evening meal in the hotel restaurant before exploring Fort William, which is usually bustling throughout the year with ceilidhs and live entertainment. Alternatively just relax in the hotel lounge to conserve your energy for the following days event, it's entirely up to you!

The day of your walk begins with an early start and a full Scottish breakfast. You will then be collected by your coach/minibus to take us to our start point in the beautiful Glen Nevis where you will be given your packed lunch, from here we will begin our day.

Hopefully with the weather permitting, we will have the complete group on the summit for our group photo of which the charity will receive a copy.

On the return to the start point in Glen Nevis you will find the coach waiting to take you back to the hotel, maybe for that long soak in the bath you've been thinking about all the way off the mountain! Its then time to round off the day with a good well-earned rest and another beautiful evening meal in the hotel restaurant, leaving us only one more formality, presenting you with your certificate of achievement before you head out to celebrate and sample that local hospitality.

Your two days then come to an end on the Sunday after another full Scottish breakfast before your coach arrives to take you to your departure point in Glasgow.
