No visit to the Scottish Highlands is complete without a trip on the Nevis Range mountain gondola, from small family gatherings to large corporate groups; Nevis Range is the perfect destination for group outings. We pride ourselves in our ability to cater for people from all age groups and abilities, from all walks of life. We also cater for educational groups and have attractive offers for tour group operators.

What is there to see and do?

The 6-seater cable cars carry visitors effortlessly up Aonach Mor to 2150ft from where they can stroll to one of the panoramic viewpoints; Sgurr Finnisg-aig, a gentle climb to views across the Great Glen and hills of Knoydart, or Meall Beag, a slightly longer walk with views across Loch Linnhe, Loch Eil and Moidart.

At the top station the gift shops offer interesting souvenirs to act as a reminder of your visit to Nevis Range, where we also offer the unique opportunity to post your cards from the highest post box in Scotland, which boasts its own special stamp. We have also recently developed a Mountain Discovery Centre, which aims to educate adults and children alike about the wildlife, mountain habitat and landscape that surrounds us.

At the Snowgoose Restaurant visitors can enjoy delicious home cooking and fresh baking made from local produce, or alternatively sample a local dram in the bar. Every Thursday and Friday evening during July and August visitors can enjoy a meal at the Snowgoose restaurant, with a discount voucher to use at Ride and Dine given with all tickets. Sunset Ride and Dine Evenings are truly a once in a lifetime experience and you can be assured that a memorable time will be had by all. If you wish to bring a group to Ride and Dine you must pre book.  Contact the office on 01397 705825

For the more active within your groups we also have an internationally acclaimed Downhill Mountain Biking Track, which hosts several major events during the summer months including the World Cup. During the winter months our slopes come alive with skiers and snowboarders, attracted by our record for good snow conditions running late into the season.

Last but by no means least, for those who prefer to keep their feet firmly on the ground, the base station boasts a cafe and a series of forest walks ranging in length and difficulty. However many visitors prefer just to relax in the tranquil setting and enjoy the spectacular scenery.

Time Required

Most groups visiting Nevis Range allow a minimum of one hour for their stay. The cable car trip itself takes approximately 15 minutes each way, rotating on a continuous cycle so minimal queuing can be expected. Additional time may be required if members of your group wish to walk along to either of the viewpoints to admire the stunning views or if you wish to make use of the restaurant as a meal stop.

Additional Facilities

Welcome on arrival: Staff at the centre are more than willing to welcome your group to Nevis Range on arrival, providing details about the experience itself and the facilities that are available to them. This is also an ideal time to answer any queries that members of your group may have.

Free parking: The centre has ample parking with a coach drop-off point directly outside the base station.

Disabled access: The cable cars can accommodate most wheelchairs, and can be slowed down or stopped to help access.

Discounts Available

Groups of 12 or more people currently receive a 20% discount on Adult Gondola tickets & 13% on Child Gondola tickets, when purchased in a single transaction.

Group discounts are also available on lift passes, instruction and hire during the winter season, the specific level of discount available will vary depending on the numbers within your group:

Lift Passes

Instruction

An instructor can be hired for the day (2 hours both am and pm) at a cost of £112.00 or £76.00 for a half day. These rates may be reduced if you are hiring an instructor for a period of several days or for a number of successive weekends. There is a turn up fee of £20 when you have booked an instructor and for whatever reason do not utilise them.

Please ensure that instruction groups do not exceed 10 in number and that all members of the group are of the same ability.

Ski/Board Hire

A discount of 10% is available for groups of 10 or more, for groups of 19 or more a 15% discount is available.

Booking

It is not necessary to make a booking in advance if your group merely want to take a trip in the Gondola as the Gondola runs on a continuous cycle so can accommodate large groups at any time during the day.

We do however strongly advise pre-booking large groups if you wish to make use of the catering facilities or are interested in taking part in any of the onsite activities, i.e. skiing, snowboarding or mountain biking.
