4x4 Hire Winter Adventure

4x4 Hire Winter is on the top priority bucket list for most of our customers this year. I mean who doesn’t love snow?! Especially experiencing 4x4 defenders driving in the snow. The 110 Land Rover Defenders have become the new in during the winter and we are totally here for it. The wild camping experience you will gain from the defenders is drastically different to the campervans. If you love travelling all year round we recommend hiring our Trax campervans during spring and summer and then hiring the 4x4 defenders in the autumn and winter. All out vehicles are equipped with all the latest tech. They will handle Scotland’s rugged terrain with no problem at all and will adapt to the weather easily. 

Spotting Scotland’s winter wildlife

If you are like us, we love wildlife spotting in Scotland while 4x4 Hire Winter defender is happening. In the mountains of Cairngorms you can spot red deer stride across snow dusted hillsides. Head out on a wild tour too. It's beautiful. One of our employees has gone and they absolutely loved it! The tour guides took them to the sightings where they had the best chance of spotting wildlife and it was not disappointing for sure. Head towards Isle of Mull or Ardnamurchan peninsula where you can spot sea eagles. How could we forget, head to Nocturnal wildlife tours where you get to see wildlife in the dark under the thermal technology - this is based in Castle Douglas in Dumfries & Galloway.

Fridge Ice Factor in Scotland 

This activity centre is located in Kinlochleven, Lochaber. They offer ice climbing activities as well as lessons if you want to take them. It's the most fun 2 hours you will have ice climbing on a 40ft ice wall, you will get to grips with the basics. This place is only two and a half hours away from 4x4 Hire Winter in Glasgow.
