About This Tour
The mighty Ben Nevis is the highest mountain in the UK at 1,345 meters / 4,413 feet. At the summit, you earn phenomenal views of the Lochaber landscape. Your friendly local guide, Trev, will take care of navigation, safety and logistics so you can enjoy a fantastic day in the mountains. After the hike, we'll head to one of the pubs in the glen for a celebratory pint or dram (optional). A private hike allows you to tailor the day to your liking. We could even summit later in the day to see the sunset. However, weather may affect some options. Your guide will keep you updated with the mountain forecast and can help with any clothing & equipment questions if needed.
