Our Philosophy
Shared Mountain is a Social Enterprise. This means that a cut of your guiding fee goes towards the youth adventures charity branch within our business. The charity branch of Shared Mountain runs courses for young people at risk offering opportunities to get out in the mountains and try mountain sports, as well as taking part in groupwork and 1;1 supportive mentoring.
