The long anticipated meet in Torridon!

 

This is going to be another weekend full of long hikes, and very short nights.

 

We are staying at Inver Croft Hut, just west of Achnasheen.

 

Activities

As always, you make your own plans for what you want to do during the weekend. However, we will and can support you with tips for route choices and we will of course make our own plans which you will be invited to join!

Torridon and Wester Ross offers many gargantuan and epic mountains, some harder than others, this trip will require a proficient level of mountain fitness to tackle the harder ones (such as Liathach), but there is also plenty of choice in terms of more moderate Munro's. There will also be potential opportunities for outdoor climbing.

 

Accomodation 

Inver Croft Hut runs off grid and is solar powered, this means we will need to be mindful of how we use the electric, namely saving it for the water purification system, drying room and cooking (it may also be plausible to bring a camping stove if you own one). There are no plug points in this hut so please bring a power bank with you. We would also recommend bringing bottles of water (this can be discussed during the MS Teams meeting). It should also be noted that there are no showers (although use of the nearby stream could be plausible), and there is no fridge at the hut so please plan accordingly.

 

What to bring

This trip sees us into Spring, meaning "better" weather and the use of more Summer orientated gear, but please remember to bring plenty of layers still. If you're unsure on what to bring please contact us.
