MEET THE ARRAN MOUNTAIN FESTIVAL WALK LEADERS
 
ADELE PENNINGTON

What do you do when you don’t lead walks for the Arran Mountain Festival?
I am a full time Mountaineering Instructor busy at work on the Mountains of Scotand and when not working sea paddling, skiing and generally enjoying my time in the mountains.

Tell us about a favourite mountain moment.
Ahh a difficult one as there are so many moments...  Topping out on Ben Nevis after a winter climb is always great and especially on Christmas day last year.
 
What is your favourite Arran walk/climb?
Has to be the South Ridge Direct, Rosa Pinnacle.

Which piece of kit would you not head into the hills without?
Map, compass and sandwiches
 
What is your favourite breakfast before a long day out in the mountains?
Sausage buttie with tomato sauce.


Adele is leading the A'Chir ridge scramble and the Witch's Step climb

2011 Arran Mountain Festival Witch's Step Walk

This walk offered a bit of everything - scrambling, ridges, bogs, but most of all the fabulous views. Outstanding!!
