About us

Highlands and Islands Adventures is a small company based in Inverness, which offers you the chance to experience the real beauty and adventure of the Highlands and Islands of Scotland.  Our modest size means that we can provide you with a completely personalised service.

We’ll take the time to speak to you and really understand what you’re looking for from your time in Scotland and then work with you to create your ideal mountain biking adventure in Scotland.  We’ll offer advice and make recommendations based on the information you give us, but we won’t pre-judge or try to sell you a set trip because it’s convenient for us – it’s your holiday, after all.

You will see on the website some examples of mountain biking holidays in Scotland we have run previously. These are to give you some inspiration for your own adventure, they’re not prescriptive. 

Once we’ve discussed your needs and you’re happy with the itinerary, you can leave the rest to us.  We’ll fret over the details – all you have to do is arrive on the right date.  Oh, and pay of course!

At the heart of our business is your safety.  Our guides are fully qualified to the high standards of the Scottish Mountain Bike Leader Award and to administer first aid in mountain conditions.  We want you and your group to enjoy your adventure, and the best way to ensure that is to put safety first.

We organise guided or self-guided mountain biking holidays in some of the most beautiful and unspoilt areas of Scotland.  In offering these kinds of experiences we recognise that to keep Scotland unspoilt we must respect the landscape and environment in which we work.  We, therefore, aim to operate our business with as little impact on the environment as we can.
