Question 1

Is this suitable for me?

Answer

You will need to be fit and have some walking experience. This is not a running event - it's walking and we will be aiming to keep a steady pace throughout the two days. The Cairngorms are huge and vast rounded lumps but nevertheless we will be carrying everything for the two days including camping gear so no bringing the kitchen sink! I will always try and accommodate everyone but if unsure please drop me an email.

Question 2

What do I need to bring?

Answer

You will need walking clothes (not cotton or jeans!), some extra layers, waterproofs, hat and gloves. You'll want to bring some food/lunch which you can easily eat. Plus some water or a thermos of tea/coffee/hot ribena. You can see the recommended kit list here. You will also need equipment for camping. I'd recommend walking poles!

Question 3

I'm coming from further afield, where can I stay nearby?

Answer

This is up to you depending on your budget. There is a range of campsites, hostels, B&Bs through to hotels in Aviemore but it is recommended you book in advance!

Question 8

How do I get there?

Answer

If you're not driving, Aviemore is on the mainline from anywhere in the UK. Inverness has an airport but you will need a hire car to get down to Aviemore or take a taxi into Inverness and the train down. If you are willing to offer a lift please let me know. To get to the start point you can take a taxi or a local bus - but I can arrange to fetch you from your accommodation.
