WHY BOOK WITH ALEX?
The best mountain experiences happen in small groups. That's why I keep ratios low, allowing for more individual coaching, greater flexibility and a safer, more enjoyable day in the mountains.
With over 20 years of experience guiding and teaching in the UK's most challenging mountain environments, I combine expert instruction with a relaxed, supportive approach. Whether you are developing winter skills, tackling a classic scramble or planning a private mountain objective, you'll receive personal attention tailored to your goals and ability.
Small ratios mean less waiting, more learning and more time spent enjoying the mountains. It's a simple approach that creates better experiences and helps you get more from every day outdoors.
Guided Mountain Adventures in Scotland and Beyond
The mountains have shaped my life, and I love sharing that passion with others. Join me for mountaineering, scrambling, climbing and hiking adventures across Scotland's most spectacular landscapes, or venture further afield to Norway and Spain for unforgettable summer and winter experiences.
From the rugged peaks of the Cairngorms and Skye to the dramatic mountains of Europe, every trip is carefully planned to offer a rewarding balance of challenge, learning and adventure. Whether you're taking your first steps into the mountains or looking to develop advanced skills, I'll help you build confidence and make the most of your time outdoors.
Explore my upcoming courses, trips and guided adventures, and let's start planning your next mountain journey.
