Description

Come to Keswick for an exceptionally fun and exciting day of climbing Via Ferrata as well as partaking in another excellent activity!

We’ll start our day with the three hour, or so, climb. After strapping ourselves in, we have the options of taking one of two different routes up the mountain: the easy one and the extreme one.

Once we’ve made it all the way up to the summit, we will enjoy a lovely view and hike back down to the bottom. The Via Ferrata is pretty easy to do (unless the weather doesn’t cooperate), but you do need to be a minimum of 1.3 meters tall to do it.

After this, it is time for our second activity and it’s up to you (or the weather) to decide what we do next. We’ll have the option of rock climbing, abseiling, hiking and canoeing. Each of these activities is extremely fun, especially around Keswick, and there are plenty of excellent spots all around in which to do them.

So what are you waiting for? Book now for action packed, multi-adventure day as we head up a Via Ferrata in the morning and try out another activity in the afternoon, all in the beautiful surroundings of the Lake District!

If you like the look of this trip then I think you will also enjoy my multi-adventure day of canoeing, climbing Via Ferrata and abseiling, also in the Lake District!

What people are saying about Paul

Martin

I was very fortunate to spend time climbing in England's Lake District in Nov 2024 with Paul Bedford. What a terrific guy and a great adventure! I can't recommend him highly enough. He was very safe and skilled, taught me heaps, knew the area extremely well and was great company. Just wished we'd had more time together. Thank you Explore-Share for connecting me to Paul and supporting our trip. I'd give Paul six stars if I could.

Had a great day with Paul scrambling Pinnacle Ridge in the Lake District. Paul was a brilliant guide, very patient (especially with my abysmal rope work skills!), knowledgeable and above all, kept me safe so I could enjoy the day. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Rock n Ridge and will use them again. Thanks again for a great day 👍
