Young Family Ghyll Scrambling, Langdale (Age 5+) with Path to Adventure

Fun for the whole family!
Situated in the heart of The Lake District National Park is Stickle Ghyll. A truly unique ghyll that winds its way up the mountainside towards Stickle Tarn, which is nestled between the magnificent Langdale Pikes.

Explore nature's playground and marvel at the stunning scenery on offer. Take the plunge into crystal clear pools and scramble your way up numerous rocky scrambles and waterfalls. 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, pools and climbs are optional. 

The start is next to the car park and it is accessible with a public footpath running up the entire length. Perfect if you have party members that wish to spectate, but don't want to get their feet wet.

Put on one of our high-quality warm wetsuits which are always clean, dry and well-fitted and let us guide you up this exciting scramble. 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.
