West Coast Mountain Guides

"Skye Cullins"
The guides Taff and Sarah were absolutley superb, extremely proffesional and very friendly, exceptional knowledge of the mountains and best routes to use.
Explained all the pros and cons of the routes depending on the weather.
Always had safety in mind and talked you through what is required when attached to ropes, and how to use the equipment properly.
Picked up some useful tips which I now incorparte into my own outings.
Overall a superb four days.

"Cuillin Munro bagging extravaganza"
I just had one of the most amazing experiences taking in 11 Munro summits in the Skye Cuillins with Mehmet (our guide). In a group of three, with Mehmet leading, it was what felt like a highly personalised and successful four days out on these technically-demanding hills, including some difficult roped scrambles and the ascent of the In Pinn, and abseils.
Importantly, a group video call prior to departing for Skye was super useful for ensuring we were all as prepared as could be for this challenge.
Mehmet is also the most friendly and approachable guide one could hope to meet. Not only this, he is a font of knowledge on all sorts of topics from mountain flora to, as well as an array of interesting non-mountain related topics! The conversation flowed making the days seem short. Perhaps too short - it's a testament to the experience that the week whistled by in a blur, although in reality I think we were out for something like ten hours a day on average! It's also worth adding that Mehmet helped engender a fantastic vibe amongst our little group of three, none of whom had met before.
At all times I felt completely reassured by Mehmet's meticulous attention to detail, and knowledge of the mountains and weather, especially making contingency plans in what was not the ideal week in terms of rain and potential thunder. Also, at no point did I feel any question or mistake made by me were too silly (and I'm sure a number were!).
Already thinking about my next experience to build upon this epic :-)
Now, if only Mehmet could also control the weather....

THE way to "do" the Black Cuillin Munros.
Jun 2023 • Solo
This is the way to "Do" the Cuillin Munros, what a fantastic experience, Julie my guide for the four days was outstanding, great company, totally confident & competent, I approached the experience with more than a little trepidation, never having done any technical rock climbing & not much scrambling, (certainly not at Cuillin level!) but I needn't have worried, Julie saw me through it all regardless of what the mountains or the weather could throw at us.
One of the best times I have had in the hills, I cannot say thank you enough.

"An Incredible Day on the Ring of Steall"
My experience with West Coast Mountain Guides was on The Ring of Steall. My favorite part of the day was the adventure itself. This was added to by Mehmet whose knowledge of not just climbing but also geology and flora was brilliant. It really added to the connection with the mountains and seeing how beautiful they are.

"Top class guiding company"
I had two days, one on Liathach, where we had bad weather, but managed to do the path around the pinnacles and one day on Aonach Dubh doing several classic rock climbs. Both instructors were excellent, made me feel safe and were good company.
Organisation is also very good. WCMG are my go to company for guiding in Scotland and I have always had a good time.

"Unforgettable day climbing An Teallach"
I had an amazing day climbing An Teallach with my guide Iain. He was very knowledgable and adapted the route according to my ability. The views were amazing. It was certainly a challenge that I will remember forever.

"Day hike on Bruah Na Frithe"
The three of us went on a day hike in the Cuillins with Neil. Neil was very friendly and knowledgeable. Despite extremely windy conditions at times, we always felt safe. Amazing day out and would highly recommend West Coast Mountains!
