Description

Khao Rai is the tallest mountain on the island of Ko Pha Ngan. To get to the top you will follow a dirt road until eventually this turns into jungle trail. There are many roots along the trail and this makes it very technical. At the top, you have an amazing view to the north of the island and can see Ko Pha Ngan's neighbouring island, the smaller Ko Tao.

Description

The rock/run traverse, called the Trans Cuillin, West to East traverse of 70 Cuillin tops (75km & 9000 meters of ascent) was devised by Rob Woodall, who attempted it in 2001 but unfortunately, due to bad weather, didn’t manage to finish.

It is believed James Gibson is the first person to have completed it, adding it to the growing list of long-distance challenge records he holds.

Glen Etive, just south of Glen Coe, is regarded by many as one of the most beautiful glens in Scotland. If you’ve not been there you may have seen glimpses in films such as Skyfall. It’s surrounded by fantastic hills on both sides, including 16 Munros, with the iconic Buachaille Etive Mor being the most renowned.
