Top effort from the team at Horizons for @WaterAidSNI @WateraidRwanda projects delivering vital clean water, decent toilets & hygiene projects 🇷🇼🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[Scottish Water Horizons @SW_Horizons]

Several of our team conquered Bhein Glas & Ben Lawers – all in support of @WaterAidUK!

Between bursts of song & wild stories, every step was full of grit, laughter & some very tired calves!

Together, they raised over £1,200💚

Outstanding effort from this hardy trio of @scottish_water Munro Challenge adventurers, Scott, Paul and Peter, who biked to the top of Ben Chonzie on Saturday & raised more than £1000 in the process for WaterAid 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇷🇼

Good luck to our Munro Challenge teams heading out this weekend for WaterAid.

In recent weeks, a team from @envirocleanscot scaled Schiehallion & a @scottish_water crew topped out on Ciste Dhubh.

As the t-shirts say, all for clean water, decent toilets & good hygiene 🙌

Ciste Dhubh via Am Bathach for WaterAid Munro Challenge 2024 supporting clean water, decent toilets & good hygiene projects.

They weren't kidding when they said this one sits far back off the road to Skye. My Munro #96, my brother's 100th. @walkhighlands

Top team, epic day 👊

[Scottish Water Munro Challenge 2024 @SW_Munro2024]

Amazing effort from a @scottish_water Munro Challenge team led by Transformation Director Kes Juskowiak - they only cycled to the top of Ben Chonzie, raising £1500 in the process.

Pedal power and then some 👏👏👏

Fresh snow has fallen on the high peaks of Scotland for three consecutive days now. The is very unusual, having happened only a handful of times in the last thirty years.

The record for fresh snowfall in June is nine days (total), which occurred in 1977 and 2012.

[Scottish Water Munro Challenge 2024 @SW_Munro2024]

Urgent update: due to forecast mountain weather conditions, Saturday's Munro Challenge event is postponed. The safety of all 360+ amazing participants, who range in experience, is a priority.

Team leaders & participants have been messaged. New dates will be announced.

[Scottish Water Munro Challenge 2024 @SW_Munro2024]

Looking ahead to Saturday's hikes for Munro Challenge 2024, hopefully there's a more positive June forecast for the weekend, but a reminder that conditions up high can be very different to those at lower elevations ⬇️⬇️⬇️

[Mountain Weather @the_MWIS]

Go prepared for the conditions on the mountains this week... the calendar says June but there's a taste of winter coming on the high tops 🥶🏔 @Mountain_Scot @glenmorelodge

[Scottish Water Munro Challenge 2024 @SW_Munro2024]

Our teams are gearing up for the 2024 @scottish_water Munro Challenge next Saturday, raising vital funds for WaterAid. You'll spot participants wearing our eye-catching new event t-shirts if you're out in the hills. We've got a bumper number of teams taking part 👏🙌

[Andrew @AJWalker73]

The Glen Lyon 4 ✅️ Munros 92-95 bagged despite the windiest of walks across 4 summits.

As beautiful summits go Meall Garbh takes some beating 🫣 Carn Gorm so windy we struggled to stand. Carn Mairg the standout. Meall na Aighean just needed climbed.

Ideal @SW_Munro2024 prep.

[Scottish Water Munro Challenge 2024 @SW_Munro2024]

Fundraising Wonder-Woman Jo Hedley has signed up for the #MunroChallenge2024 to support @WaterAidSNI! 💙
