The exhilaration of climbing a natural structure rather than an artificial construction can’t be beaten! In a stunning environment you will be challenged regardless of your skill level and experience what it feels like to climb real rock in the great outdoors if you haven’t done so already.
A mountainous region in North West England which is famous for its lakes, forests and mountains. We have rented out a whole bunk house situated in Newlands Valley which is regarded as one of the most picturesque and quiet valleys in the national park. An ideal location that is close to Helvellyn, a mountain that we will be climbing on one of the days.It holds one of the most famous ridges called Striding Edge that hosts some of the most spectacular views in England.
Shepherds Crag is where we will be climbing for one of the days. Situated in Borrowdale which isn’t too far from the bunkhouse and is a very popular climbing venue that has lots of routes that are suitable for all abilities.
