Ghyll Scrambling in the Lake District
Looking for a fun-filled, action-packed adventure that’s perfect for families, friends, and thrill-seekers? Ghyll scrambling is one of the Lake District’s most exciting outdoor activities.
About Ghyll scrambling
Guaranteed to make a splash – you’ll follow mountain streams down rocky ravines, and scramble up waterfalls. You can jump into the crystal-clear plunge pools, and slide down smooth rock chutes. It’s wet, wild, and unforgettable.
Also known as gorge walking, ghyll scrambling is all about exploring mountain streams on foot – and hands! You’ll scramble, climb, wade, and slide your way through the natural playground carved into the Lakeland fells.
It’s suitable for almost all ages and abilities, making it one of the best group activities.
