Your guide—university-trained and local—shares the mountain's geology and ecology whilst you absorb views that stretch across the Derwent Valley and distant wilderness. Half an hour at the summit lets you wander the alpine zone at your own pace before heading back down.

The boat accommodates small groups, keeps you sheltered from the elements, and includes a toilet and change room for those keen to swim.
