Latest From The Mountain

The wind just doesn’t seem to be easing up this week – it is very blustery at Base Station and gusting over 60mph on the Summit. All Mountain Activities are closed today.

It is looking like wind will reduce tomorrow and we are expecting to run the  Mountain Railway and our activities.. Please check for updates before travelling.

The Mountain Railway will be closed for two brief periods this Autumn between the 21st – 23rd September, and 3rd – 9th of November.
