    You can book on to these ‘Molehill to Mountain’ walks individually or perhaps consider booking on to all of the walks for some motivation to get fit and more confident in the hills.

    The pace is kind and slow enough to take in views and sights of wildlife and more along the way.

    From the road the Graham hill, Sgùrr an Fhìdhleir, the Fiddler, is a distinctive shape and from the summit gives spectacular views of the surrounding hills of Coigach and Assynt. The way up is on narrow sheep tracks or off path. Our ascent this time is 590 metres.

    Booking is required via Eventbrite or by contacting Jenny. Please book by 5pm Wednesday 18th of September. Meeting place given out on booking.

    This sessions price has been set to FREE. We ask for donations to help with our work, which goes towards education about and protection of the nature of the Highlands. Please give what you feel you can afford. We suggest a donation of £20 per person to cover our costs or £40 per person to further support our work.
