Award Description

This qualification trains and assesses candidates in the skills required to lead hillwalking groups in summer conditions on mountainous routes not requiring the planned use of a rope. Established in 1964, this was the first qualification created by Mountain Training.

The Summer Mountain Leader training is for people who want to lead groups in the hills and mountains of the UK and Ireland in summer conditions.

Fiona Chappell will be running this course, based from Aviemore, along with other qualified and experienced instructors.

We cover the course syllabus including planning, navigation, emergency procedures and steep ground, the environment and help the development of personal leadership skills appropriate to leading groups on the hills and mountains. There will be a mountain journey with an overnight camp and whilst mostly we will be out on the hills, there will be discussions and time to reflect at the end of each day.
