Multi-Activity Days in the Lake District
If you cannot make your mind up and would like to try rock climbing, gorge walking and abseiling all on the same day how about coming along on one of our multi-activity days.
To book a multi-activity day please email us or call us on 07984 410230 first with your choice of dates to find out if there are still places available and then follow the instructions on our "How to Book" page.
What is a Multi-Activity Day?
The morning will start with an introduction to rock climbing; you will get to try a range of climbs and learn the climbing basics.
Then we will finish off the morning with an abseil. If your multi-activity day is based in Borrowdale you will get to do a fantastic 100 foot abseil down the side of an old quarry.
After lunch we will go gorge walking usually in Stoneycroft beck or Honister Gill ("gill" is a Lake District word for mountain stream). Whichever gorge you go to you are guaranteed an exciting afternoon complete with slides, jumps and plenty of getting wet.
You don't need any experience and we will provide all of the specialist equipment.
Useful Information
What you need to bring:
For the morning you will need enough clothes to keep you warm and dry
whatever the weather. Please avoid jeans. For climbing we
recommend you wear a pair of well fitting trainers.
For the afternoon bring a wetsuit if you have one or if not please wear
plenty of old, warm clothes (tracksuit and fleece are best - again no
jeans) that you don’t mind getting wet and waterproofs. An old pair of
trainers is best for your feet.
And don’t forget a
complete change of clothes to change into when you get back to
the car.
You will also need a packed lunch and drinks for the day.
We will provide: Helmets, harnesses, climbing
hardware and ropes.
Transport is not included but most venues are
accessible by bus.
The afternoon ghyll scramble will be at a different location but you will be able to follow your instructor there in your car.
