All our SML courses at Falkirk Outdoors will be directed by John Jackson (WMCI).
This is a non-residential course so leaves candidates free to choose their own level of accommodation. However, our central Scotland location means you can enjoy the mountains by day and still get back to your own bed at night.
Please remember, the final 3 days, 2 nights will be spent out on exped.
From Falkirk we have an abundance of outdoor training venues to use, all within a short drive away from our centre. Transport from Falkirk each day will be in one of our centre minibuses (included in the course fee).
If you have any questions about this course, then please feel free to contact John via the ‘enquire’ button, email or text.
