Public Esk Gorge Scrambling
Advanced Full Day Ghyll Scrambling
Service Description
Meeting Point: Carpark on Hardknott Pass Considered the biggest and most intense gorge scramble in the Lake District, Esk Gorge is not for the faint of heart! The gorge sources its water straight from the base of the tallest mountain in England, Scafell Pike. A combination of beautiful isolated views and chillingly tall jumps, the Esk makes for a day never to be forgotten! We suggest this ghyll for those with ghyll scrambling experience and a reasonable level of fitness. The approach consists of a one hour walk on a flat and well-trodden footpath to the end of the Eskdale valley.

Your guide will have a waterproof bag for any medication. Any technology is bought along at your own risk! THIS ACTIVITY REQUIRES A MINIMUM OF 3 PARTICIPANTS TO RUN. Minimum age 12 years.
