Ascents of Adventure

Welcome

Happy New Year

Ascents of Adventure is run by me, Andy Bruce, and is based in Windermere in the Lake District. I run personalised hill walking, scrambling, rock climbing and navigation courses providing instruction and guided days out in the stunning mountains of the Lake District. I can also provide similar experiences in the mountains of Snowdonia and Scotland. When the weather is cold and gloomy in the UK I run rock climbing holiday courses to sunny Sardinia. Whatever your current level of skill or future aspirations, I will tailor-make a walking, scrambling or rock climbing experience to suit your needs.

Maybe you have never climbed before and want a single day's taster of this fantastic sport. Maybe you already have some rock climbing experience and want a week's course on the classic rock routes of the Lake District or Snowdonia to develop your skills further. Maybe you want to hone your navigation or scrambling skills so that you can take your outdoor adventures to the next level. Or maybe you want to give a weekend's guided walking in the Lake District or Snowdonia to someone as a gift.

I hold the Mountain Instructor Award, the highest summer rock climbing qualification in the UK, so you'll be in safe hands and I have been instructing for 25 years. I am a member of the Association of Mountaineering Instructors.

I don't believe in hidden costs, so if you need to borrow rock climbing shoes, harness or helmet on a scrambling or rock climbing course, there is no extra charge for this.

Have a look through the website, then give me a call or email me to discuss what kind of mountain experience you would like.
