Hill Skills - learn and explore

The Hill Skills course is all about teaching you some basic skills so that you can be independent and explore our beautiful countryside. You'll learn alongside like-minded people at a pace that's right for you. There is no experience of hill walking required to attend a Hill Skills course because the content of the course is aimed at beginners. If you do have some experience of hill walking but aren’t confident about planning walks, navigating and understanding the equipment required, then the Hill Skills course is an ideal way to learn. The course cover all the essentials including map reading and emergency procedures (such as what to do if you get lost) as well as giving you plenty of opportunity to plan your own walk and practice what you've learned.
