Stag and Hen parties

Looking for adventure? How Stean Gorge can offer an exciting mix of gorge scrambling, abseiling, caving and mountain biking all in one location.

Challenge yourself on The Via Ferrata – literally meaning ‘Iron Way’ – is a network of iron beams, ladders, chains and cables set in the rocks to help adventurers climb, scramble and abseil through How Stean Gorge. You will wade through gushing water, traverse on ladders and beams, abseil 60 feet off a bridge, slide through spouts and sit under waterfalls. Sessions take approx. 3 hours, starting with a safety briefing with one of our 3 approved guides. Each group has a maximum of 6 participants. All safety equipment is provided.

Delve deeper into the countryside and hire a mountain bike? At the heart of the Yorkshire Dales we’re also suited for adventure on and off road with green lanes, bridleways and tracks leading to picturesque villages and remote reservoir locations. We can advise on flatter routes for beginners and challenging hill routes for the more adventurous. We can even supply a safety helmet, lock, reflective strap and cycle bag for your map and drinks!

Potholing and other water based experiences can be arranged in advance.
