Tim Exley IFMGA Scheme

We’re privileged to have Tim join the team this season as one of the latest intake of top-end climbers on the IFMGA scheme, the highest international qualification for mountain guiding available. He attended and excelled at Skye Guides training in October 2024 and has spent the period since focusing on his Cuillin knowledge and skills.

Tim grew up climbing around the sea cliffs and moorlands of the South West, and has travelled to climb across the world, enjoying classic routes in places such as New Zealand, Australia, America, Canada and Pakistan. He loves rock climbing and alpine climbing, and his favourite days out are those sharing adventures and teaching skills along the way. Tim is currently training to be an IFMGA Mountain guide.
