Full description

Experience the thrill of ghyll scrambling, one of the most popular adventure activities in the Lake District. Follow the route of a mountain stream as it splashes over waterfalls, collects in crystal clear pools, and rushes down natural rock shoots.

Kitted out in the best quality kit available, stay warm and safe while you enjoy this adventure activity. Though great fun on warm, dry days, ghyll scrambling is an even better rainy day activity because the river gets fuller and the adventure gets even more exciting.

Amazing trip with Keswick Adventures on the ghyll scrambling. Myself and my 13yr old son loved it. Gavin the instructor was so friendly putting the whole group at ease. Even on a cold and windy day, we were all warm with the various layers on. All you need is a swimming costume and shoes - they provide the rest. Would definitely recommend.
