Ghyll Scrambling AKA Gorgewalking/canyoning

Dave's Adventure Company Ghyll Scrambling - Takes place In the Lake District, Cumbria at locations in Coniston, Langdale and all around the South Lakes.

Ghyll scrambling is an adventurous activity and such a fun outdoor activity we think everyone should give it a go. We'll tailor the adventure to suit your party. The oldest person we've taken ghyll scrambling so far was 67, father of the groom on a stag adventure day. And young children absolutely love ghyll scrambling, so long as they're kitted out in a properly fitting wetsuit (provided by us).

"That was the best day ever. I really mean it was the very best day of my entire life!"
