      Our holidays reviewed
      in your own words

      I very much enjoyed this holiday, lovely scenery, challenging but very do-able walking, pleasant bunch of people to walk with and a great guide. It was a well worthwhile trip in a beautiful part of the world. Accommodation, food and organisation was of a consistently good standard. I would certainly consider another trip with Wilderness Scotland.
