Two of Scotland’s premier winter climbing areas.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Ben Nevis and Glen Coe offer a vast selection of classic winter routes and more challenging lines. This guide compiles descriptions providing an overview of the breadth of options within these areas. It is designed for climbers who wish to compare multiple objectives and actively utilize route information alongside their experience and updated conditions when selecting the day’s ascent. <\/p>\n

Diverse grades and climbing styles.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The selection ranges from snow gullies and ridges at lower climbing grades to difficult ice and mixed routes. Routes are categorized by style, enabling you to assess which conditions make them suitable. Well-known classics are included alongside more specialized alternatives, providing a broad foundation for both repeated visits and long-term planning of winter trips in the region. <\/p>\n

Route information with an eye for conditions.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Descriptions and illustrations assist in understanding the lines and how they may form under varying winter conditions. This aids in choosing between options as temperature, snow, and ice alter possibilities. The guide serves as a detailed reference work, but route information must always be combined with current forecasts and observations from the mountains before a specific trip is decided upon. <\/p>\n

For climbers with relevant winter skills.<\/strong><\/p>\n

This is a route guide, not a beginner’s manual replacing winter climbing training. Assessment of avalanche risk, protection, approach, and retreat are crucial components of route selection. The guide is suitable for readers who possess such skills and desire a comprehensive selection, with the ability to find an objective that matches both their capacity and the actual conditions on the given day. <\/p>\n

A long tradition of hiking guides.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Cicerone has published guidebooks since 1969. The publisher emerged among climbers and mountaineers who wished to share their thorough knowledge of routes\u2014a tradition that continues to characterize the publisher’s books on hiking, trekking, and other outdoor experiences. <\/p>\n
