It has been a busy few months working for Hebridean Pursuits.








A catch up of the last few months. Here are some images of what Hebridean Pursuits have been up to. It certainly has been hectic, successful and great fun with a multitude of clients on Mull and in the Highlands.

So many adventures and happenings going on here on the west coast of Scotland. 




A first! We were honoured to be involved with The Big Swim. Gill Spink and Gemma Stweart swam for 7hrs or 15k from Mull to Oban on Saturday 23rd July to raise awareness and funding for the Roses Charitable Trust who offer residential experiences for young people on the The Roses Project at Tavool House Outdoor Centre on Mull. They have raised over a thousand pounds so far!  An amazing achievement.   


We are just returned from training a group of girls from Newsteadwood School from Kent in the Lakes District on their Gold Duke of Edindurgh's Award expedition. Good luck to them in October on their qualifying expedition. 


Tavool House is fully booked at present with lots of young people benefiting from the Roses Project experience.  Check out Hebridean Pursuits Face Book page for up to date images. 


George Watson's College on Mull with us, taking part in a variety of adventure education based at Tavool House. 


We are proud to announce our partnership with Norvern Snow boards. We will be working with them this winter season. Keep an eye on our social media and website www.hebrideanpursuits.co.uk   


The big swim! Supported by Hebridean Pursuits kayaks and Seaxploper power boat.  


Outdoor education is all about personal exploration and journeys! www.rosesproject.com #schooltrips #scotlandoutside check out Hebridean Pursuits on Instagram.. 


We have been guiding on the awesome VF at Kinlochleven recently. If you are keen to have a go get in touch hebpursuits@gmail.com 


We have been guiding on the big mountains too. Alpine preparation days here on Tower Ridge, Ben Nevis. 



Canyoning and coasteering guiding and skills training courses in May. Epic journeys.. Lots of learning. 


Open Water Swimming Course. We were proud to host the first Open water swimming course in Oban. The two day course was well attended and received. Skills, techniques, planing, recuses and swims followed by video coaching feedback all added up to a great couple of days.
