Our Story

Kennedy Mountaineering is owned by Louis Kennedy and was created in Fort William, Scotland in the summer of 2023.
 

Louis first began climbing in his early teens and has now spent over half his life in pursuit of the sport. 

 

Starting his climbing career bouldering in the dingy railway arches at the old Arch Climbing Wall near his home in London and gradually shifted towards more exciting traditional (trad) climbing and mountaineering adventures in the Scottish Highlands and abroad. 

Louis is now a qualified Mountaineering and Climbing Instructor and Winter Mountain Leader. He splits his life between personal climbing at home and abroad, working as an industrial rope access technician and sharing his enthusiasm for the mountains working as an instructor/ guide at home in the Scottish Highlands.
