Highlights

Fun for the whole family!
This Ghyll Scramble lies deep in a magnificent canyon, tucked secretly away in the stunning valley of Wasdale.  Steep Canyon sides add a magical and remote feel to this Ghyll. It has plunge pools, jumps, a cave, waterfalls to scramble up and a roped climb by the side of a waterfall to ascend out of the Ghyll. There is an optional big jump at the end. Take in the magnificent backdrop on your walk back down. You'll have elevated views over Wastwater and the majestic mountains of the western lakes. 

Our expert guides know the ghylls intimately and will tailor the day to your group offering up loads of fun challenges along the way. All the challenges, jumps and pools are optional. Please note: the short roped climb to exit out of the ghyll is compulsory. 

This is the ultimate family adventure that will entertain the whole family!

Put on one of our high-quality warm wetsuits which are always clean, dry and well-fitted and let us guide you through this hidden gem. We provide all the necessary safety equipment and instruction so all you need to do is sit back and enjoy the adventure! 

We take photos and send them to you FREE at the end so you will have memories you'll remember forever.
