Lochaber, Scotland
Enjoy the comforts of an award-winning coastal inn while you begin to slow down and switch on your wilderness skills. A local ecologist and bushcraft expert teaches you how to survive in wilderness and forage on the fruits of nature, and a mountain leader guides you into lesser known hills and islands. You will then venture on an overnight canoe expedition to truly put your new skills to the test, foraging for your supper and setting up camp on a remote peninsula.

Sara, our founder, made Lochaber her home over a decade ago. Since then she has tuned in to the rhythms of the west coast and connected with people who share her passion for wild places. Leon is one of these people who really values immersing himself in the natural world, be it on foot, canoeing, mountaineering or swimming, spending quality time getting to know a place or a single species, observing and absorbing. In Leon's words, when in nature, we are always a student as there is so much to learn. We couldn't agree more!
We are proud to work with local partners and members who share our passion for slow adventure, sustainability and regeneration. Together with the local community we have identified a number of projects in Lochaber that you can support by booking with Slow Adventure.
