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.

Come and join us for a relaxed and informative Mountain Leader Assessment set in the Lake District National Park. 

During the five days we will visit some amazing locations and discuss its geology, history and wildlife.

The course will run 9am to 6pm each day but 3 of these days will be a overnight expedition.

Cost is £420
