The closest airport is Inverness, which has a growing number of UK domestic flights. Travellers are encouraged to check the airport’s website for current routes and airlines. Once flight details are confirmed, guests can provide their arrival information so arrangements can be made for collection. Return transfers to the airport are also available. ### Is accommodation included? Yes, accommodation is always included in the price of all courses and holidays. Stays are on a full board basis with all meals provided, including home-baked bread. ### Are there any hidden costs? There are no hidden expenses. The only money guests may need is for personal items, such as a forgotten bit of kit, or for buying drinks like alcohol either to enjoy with dinner or at a local pub if the group decides to go out. ### What happens if not many people book? Because all elements of the holidays are run in-house, trips aren’t dependent on hitting high numbers to be viable. Once a booking is confirmed and payment is received, the trip goes ahead. If the itinerary originally involves a location away from base and becomes impractical, alternative plans such as a revised base or Tentipi accommodation may be offered—always with a discussion beforehand to ensure guests are happy. ### What is the difficulty level of the hikes? The hikes in this trip are considered challenging, requiring a good level of fitness and prior hillwalking experience. Participants should be comfortable walking for several hours each day on rugged, steep terrain. The walks range from moderate to difficult, with significant ascents and descents, but no technical climbing skills are required. The guide will adjust the pace to suit the group’s ability, ensuring that everyone can complete the hikes safely. ### Are midges a problem? Midges can appear from mid-June to early September but are rarely an issue. They prefer still, damp air and boggy terrain—which is less common in the Cairngorms. West coast trips are scheduled to avoid peak midge season. When necessary, guides carry effective repellent such as Avon Skin-So-Soft, known locally as the go-to defence. ### What sort of people come on these holidays? People from all walks of life join the holidays and courses—from post workers to professionals and everyone in between. The mountains tend to bring people together on equal footing, and shared experiences often lead to good conversations and new friendships. Ages vary, but the most common range is between 30 and 55. ### Will I be fit enough? Please read the prerequisites section above. If guests are still unsure about their suitability, it’s best to speak directly with a guide or instructor via the adventuro chat below before booking. That way, the right course or holiday can be recommended based on fitness level and experience. ### I have a food allergy—will this be a problem? Not at all. All meals are home-cooked and tailored to individual needs. Guests simply note allergies and preferences on the booking form. Because the food is prepared in-house, it's easy to accommodate special diets. Many guests have commented on the care and attention put into ensuring they feel safe and well-fed during their stay. ### Do I need any prior experience in Munro bagging? While prior experience of Munro bagging is not required, participants should have experience in hillwalking, as the terrain can be demanding. You should be familiar with walking on mountain paths, dealing with changing weather conditions, and navigating rough terrain. If you are new to this level of walking, we recommend training beforehand to build endurance and confidence. ## Media - **Primary image URL (resolved in app; may be absolute)**: https://adventuro.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/Screenshot-2025-04-09-114952.png - **Gallery image count**: 3 ## Limitations - Availability, exact session times, and final price may depend on the live booking flow. - This Markdown is generated from the same catalog fields as the public HTML page at the canonical URL above.
