About Ranger Expeditions

Stu is a professional Mountain Leader and expedition trekking guide. He is a member of the Mountain Training Association, with a lifetime’s experience ranging from hills and mountains in the UK to across the African continent. In particular, East Africa where he has guided clients to the summits of Kilimanjaro, Mount Meru and on wilderness treks.

Founded in 2011, our vision for Ranger Expeditions takes inspiration from the guided safari experience, bringing together adventure, a sense of journey, camaraderie, inspiration and enjoyment of nature, wilderness and mountains. While our clients feel well looked after and part of something special.

Stu has competed in cycling time trials for club G.S. Stella and in endurance races including the Spine Flare ultra and Safaricom Lewa Marathon and set the first Fastest Known Time for the 190 mile Peak District Boundary circuit. The joy of competition and a background in a highly regulated safety critical sector, led to organising Ranger Ultras trail races. Low key, small environmental footprint, great value days, big on enjoyment. Which also bring additional income to local communities

Stu brings these diverse experiences to Ranger Expeditions & Ultras adventures, challenges and training. He takes great pleasure in sharing knowledge, skills and enjoyment of upland and wilderness environments.
