Overview

Join us for our first weekend hiking trip to Aviemore!

We'll share further details via email once we have a list of everyone attending, in the meantime please feel free to contact us with any questions (@guwalkingsociety on Instagram or guwalkingsociety@gmail.com).
 

The weekend will run from Friday 21st to Sunday 23rd March.

We have rooms booked in Aviemore Youth Hostel on Friday and Saturday night. To allow for flexibility, we do not have specific transport booked, please do arrange your own travel to and from Aviemore. We will include details on possible trains/coaches in an email to everyone who reserves a space but would ask you to please arrive by 10pm latest so that we can talk everyone through the hikes we have planned for the following day.

We plan to walk on both Saturday and Sunday. Again, we will be able to give information on specific routes closer to the time, but please be aware that these will be difficult routes in both distance and elevation. Good fitness and previous hiking experience is important for this trip.

Tickets are £50, this includes a bed at the hostel and breakfast on both Saturday and Sunday. Please be aware, if you attend you will also need to cover your own travel costs and buy your own food for lunch and dinner.

As this is the first trip of this kind we have organised, we’re afraid there we only have 20 spaces. We’re aware this will likely lead to disappointment, there will be a waitlist in case of any cancellations. We hope that in the future we will be able to organise bigger events and would also encourage everyone to plan your own trips if you feel comfortable!

Happy Hiking!
