We the start day meeting at the Ben Nevis Inn. Here we will meet and greet, discussing the kit and weather for the day. The journey starts, with a gentle introduction to the Pony Track, built in 1883, with plenty of history about the area along the way. Ascending steadily, we reach half way up approximately 2 hours into the journey, with a good opportunity to feed, and refill water bottles at the Red Burn.
Now we start to ascend the famous Zig Zags, gaining height rapidly, along with the extending views across Ardnamurchan to the Great Glen. The plateau will be reached, followed by a steady walk to the summit, arriving in about 4 hours from the start.
There is plenty to see on the summit whilst we eat (Weather allowing). The ruins of the Weather Observatory (1883-1904), The old "Hotel", and the iron frame that held Clement Wragge's observation instruments which pre dates the Observatory. If the weather allows, we can see the rest of Scotland...Mountains in every direction.
We will descend the same path back to The Ben Nevis Inn, returning at approximately 5pm.
We will take a series of photographs to document your day, which will become available to you as part of our service.

Our hike up Ben Nevis was a day we will never forget. Not only was the sun shining the entire time but our guide Mark became a fast friend! He shared tips, expertise, stories, and by the end we shared a pint at the bottom to celebrate an amazing day. He was knowledgeable, friendly, and just the nicest guy! Thank you Mark for making our trip to Ben Nevis one we will never forget.
We are framing the selfie we took at the top! Cheers!

We had a very enjoyable and memorable day with Richard. Richard is very informative, experienced and which provided great comfort and reassurance on the climb. We could relax and in the knowledge that Richard would very much keep us right and give good advise on the changing weather, when to change clothes and good places to stop and rest. We would hope to meet Richard again and on future climbs.
