Glenfinnan Eco-adventure: Is it right for you?
The Glenfinnan eco-adventure is suitable for most people that enjoy exploring on foot and enjoying the outdoors in various ways.
All of the activities are optional, but highly recommended!
Visit a real bothy! Far from the comfort of your cosy Back Track Bothy, we will call into a bothy to see what you would normally expect from these simple shelters in wild places.
Wild swims and dips We will support you to enjoy a cold dip, but if you prefer to be a stay-dry-photographer, we'll appreciate the snaps of the chilly memories!
Abseiling and Scrambling These activities will be accessible to all, if you've never done these before that's OK, we will pick a venue suitable for the group and help you enjoy a new experience. All safety equipment is provided.
Night Photography and Light Painting If you enjoy twilight and starry nights, Lee will take you out for an evening session of night photography and light painting. This is a great opportunity to appreciate the night sky and create your own unique images like those below.
