This centre was founded to help more people discover the joy and challenge of hiking in the UK’s most beautiful and rugged landscapes. Run by a qualified and experienced Mountain Leader, the focus is on guided hikes that are both safe and rewarding—supporting walkers to achieve personal goals while enjoying the outdoors with confidence.
With a lifelong passion for mountains, Gary has summited all 214 Wainwrights in the Lake District, tackled major peaks across the UK including the National Three Peaks, and completed international ascents in Morocco and the Alps. Their knowledge of the terrain and commitment to safety ensures participants can focus on the experience—not the route finding.
Whether you're taking on your first mountain or building your hiking CV, this centre offers expertly led trips across the Lake District, Yorkshire Dales, Snowdonia, Scotland, and beyond. At the heart of it all is a genuine enthusiasm for helping others enjoy the physical and emotional rewards of time in the hills.
