Comments from TREKnTRAIL clients
This was a great trip in stunning scenery with a fun guide.
Paul was a wealth of information on the place-names, geology etc of the Cairngorms and I learnt a lot about this wonderful area. Staying overnight in the Corrour bothy was a great experience and a welcome place to rest after a battering by the wind and rain on the tops.
Although we walked a long way, climbing three stunning mountains and traveling back along the Lairig Ghru, the pace was just right with plenty of stops for photographs. All in all it was a great experience.

I really enjoyed my day of walking with TREKnTRAIL and found it interesting, informative and fun. The pace was just right, with plenty of stops along the way, to admire the magnificent views and learn something new. Paul is an excellent guide, relaxed and reassuring. I felt inspired to try a more challenging walk next time or maybe even Mountain Biking.

Paul took us out up Ben Macdui in wind, rain, mist - and it was still wonderful and worth every minute of the bad weather. He's a great guide, very knowledgable and great company, and good with people of all levels of fitness and experience. Highly recommended - I want to come back for a multi day hike with him.

I had a grand day in the hills. Braeriach is a great climb and the
weather was perfect. Paul obviously knows the area like the back of his
hand, and loves it. He was informative and enthusiastic. His
preparation was thorough, his advice given tactfully, his pacing
well-judged. And, leaving aside his professional skills, he was a good
companion on a long day. I'll be back!

Thanks again for the Intro to Mountain Bike Skills - What a fun afternoon! I got SO much more out of it than I ever thought I would. You gave me confidence on trails that I would never have dared try before, and gently coaxed me into attempting things like steeper downhill descents and narrow tracks (bridges & trees!) that previously scared the life out of me.
You have opened up mountain biking to me in a whole new way and I look forward to
coming out with you again later in the year.

Really enjoyed my day out walking with Paul and even bagged a munro in the
process ! Good company and very knowledgeable about local environment and
hills and more than happy to share tips about walking in the hills, mountain
biking, etc. Highly recommended.

Just wanted to say thanks again for such a great day. We were so pleased that we booked the family walk with you. We would not have found those great places and seen so much wildlife without your guidance. You held the girls' interest all the way around and they have told all their friends how much fun they had! We look forward to booking another walk and trying a mountain bike trek with you when we come to Aviemore again.

Walking with Paul is immensely enjoyable. His knowledge of and passion for the beautiful Cairngorm countryside is infectious, and whether you want a scenic stroll or a more energetic yomp he can provide whatever you fancy.
