Omg! You're crazy, but so brave to climb Ben Nevis as a newbie! The ridge looks so scary, I would have cracked. Actually, I wouldn't, coz I wouldn't have made it anywhere near it in the first place 😅
You must have been so chuffed with yourself when you got to the top, the views are so amazing.
Indeed, yeah, it was a bit crazy as a newbie 😅 @livinguktaiwan - but I had a great guide. Turns out he knew what I was capable of far better than I did. The Ridge was scary at certain points (I cracked right at the start, haha!), but overall it wasn't so bad actually. It felt more like an obstacle course - and if you enjoy climbing, it's brilliant for the variety of challenges it throws at you. And you're surrounded by the most breathtaking views the entire way up. So, on a clear day, you really couldn't as for more!
Oh yes, I was super chuffed - hahaha!
