Guided Walking

Our guided walking allows you to enjoy the area of your choice without having to organise it. Our guides have a great knowledge of our local fells and know how quickly the weather and terrain can change. They can organise all the navigation, map reading and making sure you remain safe.


Gorge Walking

Our range of gorge walking venues include some which are wetter, some which are wilder and some dryer with more scrambling. A full day or half a day, both will leave you with a great big grin on your face. Our regular sessions take half a day with one or two roped climbs one or two deep pools and element of swimming and of course walking over rocky uneven terrain (the river bed), with some scrambling and traversing along the gorge side. Full day Gorge Walking trips usually involve more swimming and climbing with a greater distance travelled.

Rock Climbing

Achieve and learn lots from a beginners session and use your skills to progress to our Climbing Adventure Day that includes scrambling, bouldering and much more surrounded by the beautiful views of the Coniston fells. A great experience to leave you with a smile on your face.

Our sailing sessions take place in our hawk keel boat, a nice stable vessel for beginners. a journey up and down as well a zig-zagging across the lake so everyone can have a go at the different skills needed to sail. We can also organize sailing course so you can learn to sail your own boat. Sail dinghies such as Wayfarers and Sport 16s under instruction from an RYA instructor. Sessions tailored for complete beginners or more experienced sailors. RYA courses also available.

The bundle is designed around the customer, you choose your activities, when you would like to do them, it's an exclusive bundle built for that particular customer. We can also help you find your accommodation ranging from campsites to luxury hotels, or even our own bunkhouse.

Our Kayaking sessions are all about get the customer to learn new skills while exploring a beautiful lake. We take you on a journey exploring all the different areas of the lake while you learn how to maneuver and propel yourself in the kayak. We can also help you achieve BCU paddling skills or take a journey up one of the many rivers, helping you to develop your kayaking skills.


Mountain Biking

Our instructed mountain biking covers more technical terrain and high mountain routes for those who want to experience the best of Lake District riding. We can help existing riders develop and refine existing skills, and give beginner riders the confidence to try new things. We structure your session to your experience and help you achieve any goals or aims you may have set yourself. Or just to try out a new area without having the risk of getting lost.


Canoeing

Go out on the lakes with a fun journey on Coniston water or Windermere in our extra wide, open boats that are easy, comfortable and stable for beginners. We explore the lake taking a journey, visiting a beach/island and playing a game or two when appropriate for the group. We can raft the boats together and, if the weather is favourable, hoist a sail. We may also visit a jetty for some jumping in on nice days, and we always pause for some hot chocolate.
