Introduction to Scrambling

We’ll introduce you to some of the easier scrambles or guide you along the longer, more challenging routes in the central fells. Scrambles range from easy but spectacular rocky walking to harder, steeper movement over rock that requires some climbing and occasionally the security of a rope. It gives an amazing days out, but requires judgment and skill, both of which we will help you develop. There are also many adventures to be had within the amazing ghylls that cut through the hills.
