The slate quarries close to Coniston provide a great venue to experience the thrill of abseiling. There are a number of abseils of different lengths so we can increase the level of challenge as you gain your confidence!
You can combine your abseiling session with some easy rock climbing, an exploration of some of the abandoned tunnels within the quarries or a scramble up a rocky ridge to a Lakeland summit.
A half day session starts from £140 and full day from £180.
