What happens on the day
You will have a briefing with one of our instructors and then get changed into your outdoor gear.
After the briefing, you’ll be trained to tackle one of only three Via Ferrata in the UK. That’s a high-ropes style climbing adventure course that criss-crosses our gorge and passes right under our glass-floored café.
Escaping the Gorge through Tom Taylor’s cave gets you back to our Adventure Base for a quick change into super-thick wetsuits. Then it’s time to abseil 14 metres from our bridge to the rushing waters beneath our Via Ferrata.
To finish, you get to explore How Stean Beck. Fossil hunting, climbing and sliding down waterfalls, jumping into deep pools, swimming in fast currents, and more. You’ll also see sections of our Site of Special Scientific Interest that are otherwise inaccessible even for enthusiasts!
