About

There is gorge scrambling, there is canyoning, then there is The Esk Gorge. A mega place with massive jumps into crystal clear waters. The pools are deep and big offering lots of swimming and scrambling along the rocky edges too. The setting is magnificent and like nothing else here in the Lake District. This activity is not to be confused with other gorge scrambles, this time we’re out for much longer and venture much further into the mountains. There is a walk of approximately 45 minutes to reach this venue so a reasonable level of fitness is required.

Our wetsuits are top quality 5mm neoprene and during cooler times we offer the addition of a 3mm over-jacket for extra warmth.

Suitable for ages 14+.

We’ve been looking after people in gorges for 15+ years, so rest assured you’re in safe hands.
