Henry our instructor was absolutely amazing, he was a great teacher, really friendly and positive. All of the staff we met were lovely actually! We tried out the climbing wall as well which was pretty good. All in all 10/10 experience we will definitely be back! · via Google [Mahmoud Wagih](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/102310302556409983067/reviews) ★★★★★ Great place! The instructors are excellent and very friendly. We had a group of 4 for a 1 hour taster; the hour goes by very quickly but unless you are an experienced ice climber you'll too sore to complete a route. Great alternative to the hills on a rainy day or if winter conditions are poor, just make sure to call a week ahead to avoid disappointment. · via Google [Nez MCLCC](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/108458384930084670759/reviews) ★★★★★ We booked an ice climbing lesson as we had never tried it before. It was a great introduction to Ice Climbing and we both thoroughly enjoyed it. Amy was our instructor and she made us feel comfortable and gave really clear instructions and helpful feedback. The place itself looks great, we didn't get the chance to try the bouldering or rock climbing but are likely to do next time we're up that way. Cannot recommend this place enough! · via Google [Noah Chillingworth](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/111385561520655676190/reviews) ★★★★★ We did the 1hr taster session. Great fun and well worth the price. Our instructor Harrison was very friendly, enthusiastic and helpful. Even allowing us to run a little over the hour to ensure we all got to try the ‘chimney’ climb. · via Google [See all reviews on Google →](https://www.google.com/maps/place//data=!4m4!3m3!1s0x48892e19a9395279:0x1222841b7dbd7d15!9m1!1b1?g_mp=Cidnb29nbGUubWFwcy5wbGFjZXMudjEuUGxhY2VzLlNlYXJjaFRleHQQAhgEIAA) ## At a glance **Address** Leven Road, Kinlochleven, PH50 4SF [Get directions](https://www.google.com/maps/search/?api=1&query=56.7137505%2C-4.9619949) **Category** Adventure & Activity Centres **Guest rating** 4.6 / 5 (136 reviews) **Suitable for** Ages 0-12 **Setting** Outdoor **Destination** Kinlochleven [More attractions in Kinlochleven](https://staycation.co.uk/kinlochleven/attractions) ★ 4.6 (136 reviews) [01855 831100](tel:01855831100) (please mention staycation.co.uk when calling) ### Quick Facts **Destination** Kinlochleven **Postcode** PH50 4SF **Payment** Contactless **Plus Code** 9C8QP27Q+G6 [Directions ↗](https://www.google.com/maps/dir//''/data=!4m7!4m6!1m1!4e2!1m2!1m1!1s0x48892e19a9395279:0x1222841b7dbd7d15!3e0?g_mp=Cidnb29nbGUubWFwcy5wbGFjZXMudjEuUGxhY2VzLlNlYXJjaFRleHQQAhgEIAA) [More photos on Google ↗](https://www.google.com/maps/place//data=!4m3!3m2!1s0x48892e19a9395279:0x1222841b7dbd7d15!10e5?g_mp=Cidnb29nbGUubWFwcy5wbGFjZXMudjEuUGxhY2VzLlNlYXJjaFRleHQQAhgEIAA) [Write a review ↗](https://www.google.com/maps/place//data=!4m3!3m2!1s0x48892e19a9395279:0x1222841b7dbd7d15!12e1?g_mp=Cidnb29nbGUubWFwcy5wbGFjZXMudjEuUGxhY2VzLlNlYXJjaFRleHQQAhgEIAA) ### 🏨 Places to stay near Kinlochleven Hotels, B&Bs and self-catering on Booking.com, with live prices.
