Award Description

This qualification trains and assesses candidates in the skills required to lead walking groups in winter conditions in the mountains. The use of crampons and axes is covered in the scheme. It builds on the skills acquired in the Mountain Leader qualification, which candidates must hold to access the Winter Mountain Leader scheme.

Take on your Winter Mountain Leader assessment at Plas y Brenin.

You're ready to lead groups of hill walkers in winter conditions, and demonstrate all you have learned about safely leading and providing basic skills instruction to parties on mountain walks within the UK. You'll need to show that you've built on the skills learnt through the Mountain Leader scheme to prepare you for the complexities associated with taking people out walking in winter conditions in the UK.
