Itinerary 

• Friday - leave Glasgow late afternoon for the journey to your comfortable accommodation in Fort William, arriving in time for dinner with the team.
• Saturday - after breakfast you head into Glen Nevis for a safety brief and equipment check before heading up the Pony Track to the summit of Ben Nevis. Weather permitting you will have lunch on the summit, taking in the spectacular views. You will then head down to your transport for the journey to your overnight accommodation in the Lake District.
• Sunday - after a hearty breakfast you depart for Wasdale Head, next to England's deepest lake. You take a spectacular route up the mountain, with views far across the area, before stopping for lunch on England's highest point. Retracing your steps back to the start, you then head south to Wales for a well earned meal and a good night’s sleep.
• Monday – head into the Llanberis Pass to start the ascent of the mighty Snowdon. Well marked tracks take you to the summit where stunning views await! On return to the base you head to a local pub for a celebratory drink before the journey home.
