Looking for an unforgettable adventure in the heart of the Lake District?
Join Mark for an adrenaline-packed canyoning experience in the stunning Langdale Valley. Hells Gorge offers the perfect introduction to canyoning – with towering waterfalls, exciting abseils, natural water slides, and gorge scrambling in one of Cumbria’s most scenic and hidden locations.
This half-day guided canyoning trip is ideal for beginners with a good sense of adventure.
What to Expect
We’ll meet at a central point in Langdale and kit up in high-quality wetsuits, helmets, and safety gear before heading off on a scenic 30-minute walk to the top of the gorge. Along the way, we may warm up in a nearby gorge to build confidence and get splashing!
Then, the main canyoning descent begins:
Scramble through flowing water and boulder-filled channels
Abseil two spectacular waterfalls – including a 40-metre finale into a crystal-clear plunge pool
Navigate rock steps, ledges, and pools as you move freely down the canyon
Finish beneath a small footbridge before walking back to base (20 mins return walk)
This is a dynamic, fun-filled trip with professional guidance throughout — giving you the confidence to push your limits in a safe and supportive environment.
