Training for Ben Nevis

Do you need to train before walking up Ben Nevis?

Anyone who is reasonably fit with no health problems should be able to walk up and down Ben Nevis in under 8 hours.
You shouldn’t need to ‘train’ specifically for the walk, but of course any extra uphill walking beforehand will help and the fitter you are then the more you’ll enjoy it!
Try walking a 16km walk that’s reasonably flat in the first instance, if you can’t complete that then you’ll struggle walking up Ben Nevis.
Why not try some lower peaks first?
If in ANY doubt – ask your doctor.
