Trek Scotland

What an amazing, once in a lifetime weekend. The weather made it even more memorable with the glorious sunshine. I highly recommend anyone to use Cairngorm Treks. Simon’s knowledge of the area and wildlife is incredible. Taiga, his dog joined us which was just an added bonus. And being the trekking for wellbeing weekend, we were joined by Shona, the life coach which is one of the main reasons I went too. The whole trek did not disappoint and I got everything I would’ve like out of it and more! I will definitely be returning. If you’re thinking of booking, just book. You will not be disappointed!

Thank you for such a great trek. Beautiful views and Simon was very knowledgeable. Will definitely be coming back!

Thank you for a fantastic day trekking and helping us achieve our first Munro! All your hints, tips and encouragement were fantastic. We felt extremely safe at all times, the lunch and snacks were superb and the company was great! Fantastic value for money! Will definitely be back

Spent the day walking in the hills with Simon. Learnt several navigation skills along the way with great teaching. Thoroughly enjoyed the day and am planning on doing a multi day trip in the next few months. Many thanks

Simon tailor made our trip through the Cairngorms to suit our ability, we felt safe at all times, had two superb picnics in great company. Having Simon on hand with his knowledge of the mountains enabled us to pack in more great views and landmarks in one day that we thought could be possible, the photographs don't do it justice! Was really lovely having Taighr the dog with us too, Sharlene and I have very positive memories of our first Munro, Ben Macdui, roll on our first 2 day trek! Thankyou

Simon recently accompanied me for a very nice hike in the Cairngorms Park, near Aviemore. We went through the forest to a wonderful lake (An Lochan Uaine). Simon gave me a lot of interesting informations on the fauna, the flora, the park and so on. I really hope to come back soon to the Cairngorms, to do other hikes with him and to discover other parts of this wonderful national park. I highly recommend trekking with Cairngorm Treks !

Simon is an incredible guide...his knowledge and enthusiasm for the Cairngorms is infectious. He manages to inject humour throughout the trek but remains professional. He genuinely cares about his clients and he was able to set the pace to meet our needs and capabilities. I thoroughly enjoyed out trek and came away feeling uplifted having learnt so much about the mountains. Loved every minute and cannot wait to return to explore further! Cairngorm treks is deserving of more than 5 stars!

Simon graciously accommodated us on last-minute notice for a day hike to Ben Macdui. He even researched our bespoke request and tailored our walk, sites, and stories accordingly. He has a wonderful knowledge of the area and provided us with great equipment and a memorable experience. Look forward to future adventures with Cairngorm Treks.

Second year running I have joined a Trekking For Wellbeing trip with Simon (Cairngorm Treks) and Shona Macpherson. I cannot reccomend this enough. Cairngorm Treks provide everything you will need for 3 days , from your tent and sleeping bag, to toothpaste and chocolate! Shona and Simon are a great team, and I look forward to booking another trip next year.

My son and I had a fabulous trek with Myrddin. We experienced every kind of weather the Cairngorms had to offer. . . all in one day!! Sandwiches and Tomintoul 16 in the bothy with rain coming down outside was one of the best meals of the trip. Myrddin was informative and knowledgeable about the area and the history. My son, who is interested in photography, really enjoyed his EXTENSIVE knowledge of that subject. Just a fantastic day all the way around!!

Just finished a one day walk with Caringorms Treks, can't recommend them enough! Myrddin, our guide was both highly knowledgeable and personable.

Just did a 5 day trek , amazing experience all round .

The effort that goes into your experience is beyond expectations.

I had high quality gear , lovely food and the highest standard of guidance on this trek .

It 100% exceeded my expectations in every way . Thanks again cairgorm treks family . ��

I have just returned from a 2night/3day trek and I wish I was back there, Simon our mountain guide was first class, giving us great tips on everything we would need to know if venturing on our own, from food to gear to maps and apps.

It was very reassuring also to watch Simon actually give advise and help to other climbers that were not even in our group. Will most definitely be booking a future trip 👍⛰

I have just completed a Trek for Wellbeing (1-3 September) which consisted of 3 days 2 nights trekking and wild camping. This was a lower level trek which was ideal for myself as someone of, to date, untested ability who does not relish nor has any inclination to clamber up mountains but was keen to experience some extended time outdoors in a serene and beautiful environment.



The group consisted of seven individuals including our guide Simon from Cairngorm Treks and Shona MacPherson who is a Life Coach and undertook the wellbeing aspect of the trip. A great deal of thought had gone into the planning and organising by Simon and Shona, the trek was pitched at exactly the right level to stretch the ability of all without being overly arduous, resulting a feeling of self-accomplishment. The gear supplied by Simon, which was everything you would need including tents, was first class and light weight, the food was delicious and nutritious with backpacks carried being kept to 10kg so you did not feel weighed down with gear. The time spent with Shona to reflect and renew was much needed and appreciated especially in such a beautiful environment.



Both Simon and Shona were extremely experienced, knowledgeable and professional in their fields of expertise and so communicative, supportive and patient throughout with everyone. It was also a pleasure getting the opportunity to know the other members of the group, all strangers, who all supported and encouraged each other throughout. I have come home physically tired with some bruises and blisters but mentally and emotionally refreshed and can honestly say it is an experience I will remember for all the right reasons so thanks to you all for that and one I would highly recommend to others.

I could have given more than 5 stars. Simon is a superb guide. We have our 2 days (first time highlands) trip perfectly prepared in the beginning of October 2016. No luck for the Northern Lights (but an unforgettable night nonetheless) which means there will be a next trip with them in the future.

Had an amazing two days in the beautiful Cairngorms learning about landscape and night time photography from Myrddin, who is knowledgeable, enthusiastic and a great teacher. Doing a wild camp is a great way to be around for the changing light and to get dark skies for an amazing view of the milky way. My photography has improved and I'm craving my next adventure in the mountains.

Cairngorm treks are excellent, would highly recommend them. Earlier this year I was on the trekking for wellbeing trip and can't wait to go on another one next year.

Brilliant day out despite the weather. What an interesting and informative guide Simon is. Highly recommended for anything from a leisurely day out to a 5 day demanding hike.

Amazing 5 days, Simon is a tremendous guide, and I learnt so much during my time in the wilderness, loved it...
