Gorge Walking

We meet at our Llangollen centre before travelling 20min to our local gorge just outside corwen. We endeavour to provide transportation where possible however in some instances We may require guests to transport themselves.

Swimwear – this is to wear underneath your wetsuit.

Good fitting shoes that can get wet with a solid sole – we find that old trainers are best. No sandals, flip-flops or crocs.

Towel to dry yourself afterwards

Personal medication  – your instructor can ensure this is suitably waterproofed if you need to have it with you at all times.

During cooler months we advise that you bring a set of non cotton thermals to give you a bit more insulation.

The session is a 3 and a half hour long including kit up and travel.

Our Gorge Walking instructors are professional outdoor guides with a huge range of group leader experience and qualifications, they are all outdoor first aid  trained and trained in water rescue. Many of our gorge walking instructors are also Mountain Leaders, Climbing Instructors as well as kayak and raft guides too!

This is suitable for anyone aged 8 or over. All children must be accompanied by an adult, we can organise sessions for groups of children but it helps to know in advance so we can make special provisions.

We run this session to a ratio of 1:8 so there may be other people with you. We never mix certain  groups such as school groups with stag/hen groups etc.. If you want a private session please call us and we will try our best to help.
