GHYLL SCRAMBLING

Ghyll Scrambling (also known as Gorge Scrambling), is one of The Lake District's most popular outdoor activities.

The perfect activity for all ages and groups large and small; team-building, stag & hen-dos, youth group outings, birthday parties and family fun days out!

Public Ghyll Scrambling; April - October, 8 Years+

Grab a wetsuit and climb, slide and jump your way up or down the Lake District's best mountain ghylls. There are plenty of fun obstacles including natural rock chutes, crystal-clear pools, and even the occasional waterfall!

All public activities require 4 participants to run. Children must be accompanied by an adult (paritipation optional).
