    Mini Bio

    I moved to Scotland eight years ago from Manchester with the desire to create a life and career in the outdoors. I haven’t looked back since. I can’t imagine a better place to call home than the Highlands.

    My desire and passion with groups is I get to share that with them and show off such a fantastic place. When I’m not working, I am instead hanging off a cliff, swimming in a loch, or cooking up a storm in the kitchen.

    Favourite Place to Play

    Cairngorms, Loch Avon. It’s one of my favourite places to be. Remote, wild, and peaceful.

    Not a lot of People Know This

    I spent two winters on landslide watch at the Rest And Be Thankful, a beautiful viewpoint near Loch Lomond.

    What Fellow Travellers Say About Rory

    Rory was very mindful of our different levels of hiking experience. He also drove us everywhere and was open to itinerary changes which I appreciated. And I liked how he interfaced with the restaurants and accommodations so we didn't have to.
