Karen, Judy, Mel and Karen proving it is possible to have fun in torrential rain in the Cuillin. This picture was taken in late June at the summit of Bruach Na Frithe.
This is usually a straight-forward peak manageable from the Sligachan but at the end of this day the burns you can normally skip over were raging after seven hours of downpour.

Welcome to the revamped and updated go further Scotland website. We'll be using this new news page to keep you up-to-date with everything mountain, climbing, and mountaineering related in North West Scotland: news about conditions, the weather, our activities, offers, trips, new courses and much more......

First of all happy birthday to our newest guide - Murdoch Jamieson - who joined the team this summer. Murdo is a local climber and all-round mountaineer who just happens to be an awesome guide. See about us for more on the go further team.

We spent more time on Skye and Torridon in 2007 than any other year so check out these pages for the heads up on our new three and five day guided trips to some of the most spectacular mountain scenery in Europe: Ridge Walking, Torridon Munros, Skye, Sky Munros, Skye Scrambles.

Lastly, while go further tailors most of its guiding to suit individuals and small groups, we've decided to schedule in a few organised three and five day trips in Torridon, Skye and the Fisherfield wilderness. More on those soon....
