Learn all the essential skills you need to stay safe and be confident while spending time in the hills with this Mountain Training Hill Skills Course. This course is not a formal leadership qualification but provides a solid foundation for further development. It's a fantastic stepping stone towards the Hill and Moorland Leader Award or simply a great way to enhance your enjoyment of the hills.

We'll cover key safety considerations, including how to deal with emergencies and make sound decisions in the hills. With a focus on practical learning, you'll spend time out on the fells, putting your new skills into practice and building your confidence in a supportive environment. This course is ideal for individuals, groups, and families looking to explore the UK's beautiful countryside with confidence.
