Ben’s back for his 3rd season with Skye Guides and we all look forward to his company!
Between growing up in the Yorkshire dales and visiting family down in North Wales I spent a lot of time outside either mountain biking, walking and doing little bits of climbing too. After finishing school I really got into climbing, with regular after work trips to Tremadog and then visits to the Lakes, Peak and Scotland, including my first trip to Skye in 2020 doing a single day traverse on a day with very misty and damp morning, the TD gap being particularly memorable…
“I have never felt safer, and more relaxed than during my day with Ben. He left nothing to chance during our day on the mountains, but also was a nice person- cheerful, affable and very knowledgeable. I had a great day, chatting and laughing with Ben. He is a great credit to your organisation. I will always recommend your company to friends in future, whilst advising them to ask for Ben!” Kennedy H
“Maybe Ben has told you that I was delighted to complete all 10 Munros as I had previously done Blabheinn and Bruach na Frithe. Aileen also had a great time with her first introduction to the Cuillin Munro experience.” Joan T
“Ben was a really excellent guide, great company, lots of information and details about the mountains and very calm and encouraging. Please thank him again from us.” Ailsa P
