Join Active for the best adventure experiences in the mountains all year round by booking onto any of our mountain sport activities.

We offer an exciting range of adventure Mountain Sports in Aviemore and across Scotland.

Our activities are designed to suit all abilities & age groups. Hike to the summits of the Munros.

Bike amongst the forests of Rothiemurchus and Glenmore.

Scramble the mountain ridges and climb at iconic crags all within the Cairngorms National Park. If you wish to venture beyond the Cairngorms for your adventure day or weekend we also run activities across in Fort William, Skye, Torridon, Perthshire & Deeside. For over 25 years Active Outdoor Pursuits has had the pleasure of witnessing the fun, exhilaration, personal growth and challenge that so many people from every background experience when pursuing outdoor adventures.

Many have used Active to simply experience the thrill the outdoors can provide or to gain a deeper appreciation of our environment.

Some have come to learn and develop new skills or start a new career on an Outdoor Instructor Training Course, some come for an outdoor learning experience with their School or College, an experience every young person should have, some come to explore new places while others come to find themselves! This is the vision we set out to achieve…helping people to experience their own unique adventures in a fun, healthy and educational environment. From Craigower Lodge Outdoor Centre in Newtonmore and our satellite Centres in Ayrshire and The Great Glen, we provide a wide range of adventure activities, training courses and holidays within the Cairngorms National Park and throughout the Highlands of Scotland.

Active Outdoor Pursuits offer activities on the hills and mountains, on snow and ice, in the water and on the water.

We cater for all age ranges and abilities and listen to everyone’s aims and aspirations with the aim of delivering individualised and inspiring outdoor experiences. People are important to us, we always strive to do the best we can and to be the best in our clients and our staff team.

At Active Outdoor Pursuits, we are proud of our staff training programmes.

Each year we take in students to our Instructor Training courses then offer as many as possible the chance to complete our Instructor Development programme (Apprenticeship).

Today, every instructor and manager began their career on an Active Instructor Training course as a client. .
