SMC Skiers‘ Guides

When conditions align, ski mountaineering in Scotland is quite simply sublime – there is nowhere like it.

New additions to classic routes, stunning photography and clear, intuitive maps offer inspiration whether you’re still honing your skills or an experienced skier seeking new challenges.

Unrivalled access, a unique network of bothies and the ephemeral nature of skiing in Scotland make days out especially memorable. With this guide, you’ll be best placed to seize every opportunity to travel deep into the wilds and carve fresh turns in some truly magical landscapes.
