About Highland Ascent
Highland Ascent has been founded in early 2008 to provide outdoor holidays in Scotland. Since we are a small outfit with small overheads we can offer flexibility at low cost for our clients. In the time since founding Highland Ascent we have offered some great holidays and courses to many people. We have also introduced some great holidays and changed a few events to make them more attractive.
What makes Highland Ascent Stand out.

Protect and preserve the environment 
The environment is the most important thing in the outdoors. At Highland Ascent we make sure that on our holidays, trips and courses we not only make sure to leave no traces but also educate everyone in preservation of the environment. After all, while out on hills or at the sea you wouldn't like to find traces of other groups who were camping at the same sports. We have more information on how we preserve and protect the environment in the outdoors of the Highlands of Scotland.
