Rock climbing & Abseiling

Intro to Rock Climbing:

Join us in the beautiful Langdale valley where you will spend the morning at an elevated crag where you will have stunning views along the valley throughout your climbing. During the session our local instructor will show you the ropes, how to tie knots and teaching you to belay safely. Challenge yourself to climb various routes up the rock face and learn some useful techniques and tips that will help your climbing. Our small participant to instructor’s ratio will give you plenty of opportunity to climb and learn.

We also use venues in the Eskdale Valley and Coniston. Both of these have an abseil too.

Suitable for all ages.
School holidays – book online available (ages 8yrs+). Groups with younger children (5yrs+), bespoke sessions can be arranged subject to availability.

Advanced Rock Climbing Day:

We also offer full days climbing, skills improvement, learning to lead and multi pitch guided climbing for those that already have some skills and want to improve or would just like to go out with a knowledgeable local guide who can show them great routes.

Abseiling – Cathedral Quarry & Hodge Close:

The ultimate adrenaline rush! As seen in Bear Grylls Mission with Warwick Davis

We'll take you on a 25 minute guided walk through beautiful woodland and 17th & 18th century slate mines with their rich history. The destination is Cathedral Quarry - bought by Beatrix Potter in 1929 and donated to the National Trust, it is preserved today for its geological interest as an important part of the local landscape. It is situated close to the village of Coniston. Here you can explore the awesome cavern and tunnels of the quarry. After exploring the quarry we'll make our way to the top where you'll have stunning views across the Langdale valley. You'll have the opportunity to have a few goes at abseiling down the big walls of the 150ft quarry.
