Testimonials

Rakhi Shah (Three Peaks Challenge)

On behalf of the team we would like to thank you for all your support during our Three Peaks Challenge and that includes you guys suffering from the hot van heaters so our clothes could dry to feeding us with lots of energy stuff and fun hot foods and drinks. Tom was a great guide who motivated us and made us eat sugar to give us energy and Jim's driving was so great that we slept like babies. Your personality for the outdoors, expertise and support makes you a great company to choose for UK challenges.

Sense (Senior National Events Fundraiser)

Jim and the Mountain and Glen team have organised three fantastic National 3 Peaks Challenges for Sense. Throughout these, the Mountain Leaders have been exceptional and ensured that everyone who took part felt supported and safe on this incredible event. Always there with words of motivation when the wind and rain were at their worst, they have enabled people to achieve one of the toughest UK walking challenges around and created many happy, proud memories

Jamie Baulch (Olympian and former world champion)

John Bell (Yorkshire Three Peaks)

I must say that the Mountain and Glen guys (Jim and team) were excellent. They were very professional, enthusiastic, helpful and, above all, very supportive to walkers of all abilities

Anthony Nolan Trust (Head of Events)

I have been working with Mountain and Glen for 3 years on a number of challenges and I can honestly say that they are the best in the business. The standard of professionalism is second to none. From a health and safety point of view they use the best guides I have come across and the organisation of the event is flawless. We have expanded our trekking portfolio over the last year and wouldn't consider using anyone else.

Melanie and Elizabeth (Yorkshire Three Peaks)

Thanks very much for everything at Yorkshire on June 11th. We couldn't have been looked after better and there's no way we would have got the time we did without the fantastic Tom. He managed to keep us really motivated throughout the day, and supported us through our one bad slump. We had a fantastic day and can't wait to begin planning for the national 3 peaks next year. Thanks again Jim

Cally Dobie (Lombard - Three Peaks Challenge)

Thanks once again !!!!

Thank you for a great weekend! We all thoroughly enjoyed the 3 peaks this weekend and just wanted to say a big thank for all the help, motivation and tips you provided along the way.

I would like to say thank you for the excellent experience of the 3 Peaks. We all had such a great time over the 3 days and achieved so much. Personal and team goals were met and the company was relaxed and supportive. The organisation of the event was very slick and ran ever so smoothly. Travel, food and provisions were ample and you clearly know what is needed to get through the challenge.

Jane Henderson (Tyneside - Three Peaks Challenge)

You looked after us perfectly, Keith made an excellent guide and your bacon sandwiches are second to none! We have had a thoroughly good, although exhausting, time. Please accept our thanks once again for the exceptional organisation and safety you offer.

Sean McBrinn (Republic of Ireland)

My sincere thanks to all the team at Mountain and Glen for their courteous, professional, good humoured and dedicated care of us on our recent successful completion of the 3 peaks challenge. I believe without their professional guidance, encouragement and preparation to every detail our challenge would not have succeeded. As part of the unofficial Irish Record Holders (12 completed this event) I wish to sincerely thank Jim and his team and highly recommend them without reservation. I will be back!!!!!!

Nick West (Ben Nevis adventure)

The organisation was second to none. Well done to all involved for a fantastic day.

Many thanks for an amazing weekend. We loved it and will never forget it! Importantly your team made the event safe and great fun, we would not have done it without you all! We managed to raise over 5000 pounds for the Anthony Nolan Trust.

I would recommend your company to anybody who has any interest in challenging adventures and values expert advice and assistance. Well done again and a very big thank you.

Gareth Kirkham (Wrexham)

The Mountain and Glen team did a great job on the weekend, they advised us of everything we should do, and were always there to support us. They did everything they could to make sure we had a chance of completing the Three Peaks within in the 24hours, especially after Scafell Pike when we thought we wouldn't be able to do it!

Dave and Emma Hall (London)

Just wanted to say a big thank you for arranging the Three Peaks challenge last weekend, it was a great experience and we all really enjoyed it. The event organisation was excellent and everyone involved over the weekend couldn't have been more helpful or encouraging.

Kerrie Hull (Edinburgh)

The trip was even better than I expected. It was a fantastic day spent in beautiful mountains with great company. I'd recommend it to anyone! I've wanted to climb Ben Nevis for a long time and to do this on such a beautiful day was a treat! Plus James was so organised for every possible eventuality he made me feel safe and confident and made the day so much fun.

Fiona Evans (Salisbury, Wilts)

I was really unsure as to whether I would be able to climb Ben Nevis. But Jim was completely professional throughout, had me enthralled by his stories, was endlessly patient with me and I had a great day with him. It was like being with a very good friend. *(She made it!)

Andrew Silver (Toronto, Canada)

I just wanted to thank you once again for a fantastic day. I could not have had a better introduction to Scottish Hill Walking.

JB (Stirling)

Steve was fantastic, a real professional and clearly at the top of his game

Andy (Bristol)

Our "Tramping the Trossachs" adventure was an unbelievable weekend! The view from the top of Ben Lomond was breathtaking. My accommodation was extremely warm and comfortable, and the food was excellent. Ten out of ten for value!

C Hutchings (Sydney, Australia)

My friends and I had read all the guidebooks and wanted to see the Scottish mountains at first hand. We booked a daywalk up "The Cobbler" and had a brilliant day! By the end of the walk we felt inspired enough to tackle Ben Nevis, the following weekend. Both days really were the highlights of our visit to Scotland. It was like nothing I'd ever experienced back home

Steve (Merseyside)

Just wanted to say thanks to Jim and the team for a brilliant couple of days! It was great not to have to worry about hiring a car or searching the web for a hotel. Good to get out of the city for a while - I felt totally de-stressed by the time I got home. See you again next year!

J H (Wiltshire)

My wife bought me Mountain and Glen gift vouchers for my fortieth birthday. I must admit, spending a weekend in the mountains was something I'd always talked about doing but never seemed to get round to. I felt totally taken care of for the whole time and Steve (our leader) was extremely professional. The experience was everything I'd hoped it would be
