Scottish Walking Holidays & Mountain Courses in Scotland

For walking holidays and mountain courses in the Highlands of Scotland look no further. Not only do you get fantastic mountain days and panoramic views of one of the world’s most beautiful places, with Mountain Innovations you get a whole lot more. Now as seen on TV with Griff Rhys Jones!

We firmly believe ‘the day’ doesn’t finish with the walk or coaching. It's about returning after a brilliant day out to “Cake-O’Clock” - a welcoming mug of tea, freshly baked cakes and a roaring fire. The superb home cooking, the totally relaxed and friendly atmosphere of our own lodge (or holiday Cottage) and being with like-minded people, make for a brilliant holiday.

"Thank you very much for another splendid Mountain Innovations Holiday. There were excellent excursions, and we very much appreciated all the trouble you took over Matthew's diet. On the train home, I sat wondering why your holidays are so good. A main factor, of course, is that you offer a complete package - transport to and from airport or railway station, transport on the walking days, accommodation, all meals and packed lunches (with the ability to provide very creatively for special diets), interesting walks showing the best features of the country (and not just guided walks, but lots of information on the geology, landscape, weather, flora and fauna etc). This is very commendable but not sufficient to explain everything. I think that the key factors are that you both work very hard and you are both very good at what you do!" Mick Wansborough
