Description

Join me for an action-packed and fun-filled day of underground via ferrata, rock climbing and abseiling in England’s lovely Lake District!

We’ve got a full itinerary, so we’ll be sure to meet up the morning and start our adventure. Trips can be tailored to you and your group’s exact needs, so let me know ahead of time and we’ll get everything sorted.

Our adventure begins from the bottom and from there we head up. We start with some underground via ferrata in some man-made mines. We’ll enjoy climbing through the network of cables and exploring the labyrinth of walkways and bridges.

Once we’re done in the mine, we will head back above ground for some climbing and up a local rock face. We’ll achieve some heights you never though possible, all with only some simple instructions and a bit of equipment.

Our day will conclude with some excitement as we abseil and rappel back down a rock face. There will be various heights and spots from which we may choose, making this perfect for adventurers of every level. Just gear up, lean back and enjoy the way down.

So what are you waiting for? Book now for this excellent day of multiple adventures in the Lake District!

If you like the look of this trip then I think you will also enjoy my multi-adventure day of canyoning, zip lining, aerial walking and free falling, 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.

James

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 👍
