Overview:
Gorge scrambling involves exactly what it says on the tin. Grab your tin opener and what do you have? - yep, scrambling through gorges. A top activity for the adventurous who have harbored a fascination for clambering over rocks, climbing through wet crevices and jumping into plunge pools ever since they watched 'The Goonies' all those years ago. You'll need to have a basic level of fitness but the guide will look after you and tailor the activity to match the capabilities of the group, especially if some of the guys have beer bellies that have seen a 'truffle shuffle' or two.
Format:
You'll be kitted up by your instructors, who'll give you a thorough safety briefing. You'll then hit the start point, where, led by your instructors, you'll begin your ascent into the gorge. You'll find plenty of tricky terrain to traverse, along with rocky outcrops and plunge pools to jump into. Great fun.
Duration:
- Actual event lasts for 3 hours, travelling time is additional 1.5 hours (round-trip).
Notes:
- A packed lunch for everybody can be included for £6.50. (Recommended - needs to be pre-ordered)
- Every participant will need to submit a Health & Saftey form prior to the event and provide height and weight information several weeks in advance so appropiate wetsuits and kit can be put aside.
- If there has been an abnormal amount of rain it is possible that the gorge could flood and the event not go ahead. Only a partial refund will be offered if the event is cancelled at late notice.
