This two-day course will give you confidence to identify alpine flowers. It will demystify the jargon behind flower identification books and help you become a more informed leader and also to prepare you for you IML assessment if you’re at that stage. The course will also look at the broader environment to develop your understanding of alpine geology, tectonic activity and land use. Spaces are limited to maximise the learning potential so please enquire early. The course will be run in a non-residential capacity in the Saas valley in Switzerland. This will allow for you to stay in accommodation to suit your budget and comfort without the requirement to stay in a mountain hut. We will use chair lifts to optimise our time getting to the upper regions of the valley. These are FREE if staying in the Saas valley but you need to ask your accommodation provider for a Citizen Pass.
The pace of the course is intentionally leisurely as clients regularly take photos and spend time making notes along the way. Priority will be given to those seeking the two-day option (although a one-day option is available). The course requires a minimum of 3 participants to run and will take a maximum of 6 participants.
This workshop is eligible for MTA and Baiml CPD points
