What you can expect
Saturday 15 – Sunday 16 August 2026
Join us for only £15 for a special evening at Allt nam Mullach Bothy, where we will revisit and relearn Gaelic traditions. Through storytelling, conversation, and staying in the bothy itself, we’ll explore the connection between Gaelic and the surrounding landscape, as well as the history of the bothy. This is a welcoming, informal night for sharing culture, language, and community led by our Gaelic Officer, Eilidh and experienced Mountain Leader, Franny. All levels of Gaelic and English welcome! Fàilte dhuibh uile.
Thigibh còmhla rinn airson oidhche shònraichte aig Bhothan Allt na Mullach, far am bi sinn ag ath-bheothachadh agus ag ath-ionnsachadh thraidiseanan Gàidhlig. Tro sgeulachdan, còmhradh agus fuireach san àite fhèin, rannsaichidh sinn ceangaileachan na Gàidhlig ris an t-sealladh-tìre mun cuairt oirnn agus eachdraidh a’ bhothan fhèin. Oidhche blàth, fosgailte do na h-uile daoine, airson cultar, cànan agus coimhearsnachd a thogail.
