Scrambling above Coniston
💥 Let’s go mountaineering! 💥
Ignore the boring paths, head off-piste and get your hands on the rock! Scramble up rocky steps, slabs, chimneys and arêtes to an amazing mountain summit and take in those breathtaking view.
This page is about experiencing a beginner’s scramble as a half-day adventure experience. We also offer:
- Scrambling courses: for those who want to learn the skills to enable them to scramble safely on their own
- Guided scrambling: full-day ‘graded’ scrambling routes in the high mountains
Prices and loads of other information can be found by scrolling a bit further down this page.
Discounts are available for large groups – just get in touch for a price.
A great idea is to ‘mix-and-match’ to make a full day of activities, with one in the morning and another in the afternoon. See all the options here.
