Gorge Walking

WHAT DOES A DAY GORGE WALKING IN NORTH WALES’ SNOWDOINA NATIONAL PARK INVOLVE?

If you don’t know what gorge walking is all about, then, in a nutshell, it is one of the best outdoor activities that you can do. Basically, it involves your group/party scrambling up or down a river or stream. Now, this might seem quite tame but it is the type of river that makes the difference. As the name might suggest, all the rivers we operate in run through steep gorges which produce various natural challenges for your team to overcome. These challenges can range from abseiling down waterfalls, climbing up 15 to 20 foot waterfalls, jumping into plunge pools and many other fun and thrilling activities along the way.

Even though gorge walking in North Wales is a hugely exciting outdoor activity we aim to make it as safe as possible. All our instructors are highly experienced instructors as well as experts in gorge walking. We check out all the rivers that we operate on and we know all the walks inside out.
