SCRAMBLING IN THE LAKE DISTRICT

The perfect two-day adventure for anyone looking to build confidence on steeper, more technical terrain while experiencing some of the most iconic routes in the fells. Over the course of the weekend, you’ll tackle a selection of classic grade 1 scrambles learning how to move safely and efficiently over rocky ground with breathtaking ridge walking and spectacular views. Guided at a steady, supportive pace, the focus is on helping you develop the skills, judgement and confidence needed to move safely and efficiently.

This course is perfect for those who already enjoy hillwalking and want to bridge the gap between hiking and mountaineering. Expect plenty of challenges, laughs, and unforgettable scenery.

Weather dependent, the weekend will include legendary routes such as Helvellyn via Striding Edge and Swirral Edge, Sharp Edge on Blencathra or the superb scrambling line of Hall's Fell Ridge, and the famous Jack’s Rake on Pavey Ark above the beautiful Langdale Valley. Each route offers you hands-on experience in technical mountain terrain in a supportive environment.
