The Cuillin Ridge is a rocky mountain range famous for its gabbro rock and amazing views. On this 4-day course, you will reach the summit of the 11 munros in the range, which are above 3,000 meters of altitude.
Every day we will head to a different spot on the ridge. We will cover classic sections such as the west ridge of Sgurr nan Gillean, the famous In’ Pinn’ and the ridge between Sgurr a’Mhadaidh and Sgurr a’Ghreadaidh. You can find a tentative itinerary below.
Keep in mind that you will need a good fitness level to join this program. Also, you will need to be comfortable with heights. Additionally, although it is best if you have some prior grade 2 scrambling experience, the summits we will tackle are within the grade 3 range, and therefore manageable. Furthermore, you will receive highly personalized instruction and we will be there to help you out at all times.
So, are you ready to summit the amazing munros of Cuillin Ridge in Scotland? Then contact us now and join us on this fantastic experience!
Or, if you prefer, you can come with us to climb to the top of Ben Nevis!

I was looking for a local guide for a hike I was planning and came across Explore-Share. They seemed to have good reviews and so decided to give them a try. The experience was very positive and completely happy with their service. I will be using them again for next trip.

Thank you explore-share for a wonderful via feratta experience. We have been wanting to learn for a long time but don't have the facilities in Scotland. The guide Mitja was extremely helpful and knowledgeable, answering all my many questions and providing advice. On the day head to take another group but he quickly arranged another guide Borut, who was brilliant. We had a fantastic morning learning via ferrata at Hvadnik in the gorge. It gave us the confidence to later hire our own equipment and go out in Mojstrana. Altogether a five star + experience. Thank you.
Stay up-to-date on the best adventures.
