Guiding: Glen Lyon Mountain Journey

Walking the high tops in the Scottish Highlands is hugely beneficial for fitness, wellbeing, our understanding of the natural world and our perspective on life. Join guide Jamie Grant on a mountain journey into the heart of Glen Lyon’s hills and deep history. A full day of guided hill walking that will aim to include at least one significant peak and some informative chat around the alpine flora, mountain geography and local folklore. We will also keep an eye out for the Highland’s rich wildlife and hope to spot red deer, mountain hare, red grouse and maybe even a golden eagle.

Jamie is a qualified mountain leader and longtime resident of Glen Lyon. He is also the Director and co-owner of Glen Lyon Coffee Roasters, so you are covered for great coffee on this journey!
