We signed up for an afternoon of ghyll scrambling and we weren’t quite sure what to expect. What we got was a fantastic afternoon – climbing up and down river banks, diving into the water (with wet suits!) and generally challenging ourselves under the watchful eye of Stuart …

Rock Climbing is what we do!!!!

With the highest UK qualifications in rock climbing and mountaineering, we don’t just offer basic taster sessions.

We’ll coach and give you the best introduction to rock climbing you can have in a full-day session.  We know how important your time is and being able to introduce you to this brilliant sport is so exciting.

As a family, we really enjoy being out rock climbing and have climbed all over Europe. We know how it feels to reach the top and also the challenge it takes to get there. Everyone’s experience is different and with over 20 years of experience in taking groups rock climbing, we are used to working with all sorts of people and helping them have a great time on the rock.

This rock climbing and abseiling page are where we offer full-day rock climbing instruction. As rock climbing is one of our main areas of expertise, please view our Rock Climbing Courses and Private Guiding for more technical training and coaching.

You don’t need any experience or prior knowledge to have a great full-day session of rock climbing. We will teach you all you need to know for your session including how to use harnesses, tie in and belay each other.

Perhaps you have climbed indoors and want to have a go outdoors. That’s great. We rig all of the climbs ourselves so we can set the level of difficulty from easy to harder depending on what you want.

All routes are between 10 and 20m long so you’ll get to try several different ones during your session.

The best venues are in Langdale, near Ambleside. Also, there are some great climbs near Keswick which we incorporate into a full day of activities.

The best venues in the Lake District are in Langdale near Ambleside, or in Borrowdale near Keswick.

If booking a half-day or full-day rock climbing session we will meet in Langdale at the National Trust Stickle Ghyll car park.

If you are booking rock climbing in the morning and Stickle Ghyll, Church Beck or Abseiling for the afternoon, meet as above.

If you are booking an all-day rock climbing and Stoney Croft ghyll scrambling or Stoney Croft canyoning we will meet you in Borrowdale.

We will send you directions on a PDF at point of booking.

Half-day sessions run as follows:
Morning 9:30 am to 12:30 pm – Afternoon 1:30 pm to 4:30pm. That’s three full hours of activity.

Full-day sessions run as follows:
9:30 am to 4:30 pm. That’s seven full hours of activity.

We realise how valuable your time is and this reflects in our attention to giving you a full session. We always get to the meeting venue early, arrange our kit and make sure we are ready to go. This enables us to optimise the contact time with you, giving you real value for money and attention to your experience.

Half-day activities are really fun and do combine very well with other activities. E.g. many people book rock climbing or abseiling in the morning and ghyll scrambling or canyoning in the afternoon.

These half-day combinations and our all-day sessions can be viewed here: Mix n Match options on this page here.
