Lake District Adventuring

A faultless and absolutely perfect experience! I booked for my husband and I to go Eskdale ghyll scrambling for his 30th birthday. I booked directly though the Adventuring website which was super convenient and easy to do. Jack was out with another group so we had Pete as our guide. Pete was fantastic, very knowledgeable and made us feel at ease. Plus we had a lovely chat long the way and he was a cracking photographer with all the best spots for a photo opp. The experience as a whole was just the best day out, without a doubt the most ‘organised fun’ we’ve had! The ghyll scrambling up the small waterfalls was more challenging than we expected and the jumps were the perfect level of fear while knowing you were in safe hands. Would totally recommend to anyone looking for a fun day out in the lakes! We’re hoping to book in for another adventure soon!

We had a really nice time climbing with Jack! He was good fun, relaxed but always responsible. We were able to push our limits whilst feeling in safe hands. Jack clearly loves what he does and made our climbing experience a real highlight.

Experience the Lake District in a whole new way with Jack and the team at Lake District Adventuring. I've been canyoning and Ghyll Scrambling with them and both experiences have been nothing but brilliant. We're already looking at how to book a third adventure. On my last adventure I brought my 10 year old, who enjoyed the experience so much. Jack was brilliant and encouraging them, whilst respecting their boundaries if they felt scared leaving my child with confidence and feeling safe. Cannot recommend them enough.

Brilliant day out with the family, absolutely fantastic experience. We did rock climbing in the morning and abseiling in the afternoon. Olly tailored it to our individual levels and was a fabulous instructor (with a lot of knowledge about the local geography). Highly recommend.

*UPDATE: Refund has been processed. Thanks Jack.*We were in the lake district for a week in August with the family. We booked and paid for rock climbing for myself and two sons with Jack from Lake District Adventuring. Unfortunately on the evening before the scheduled booking Jack messaged to say he had double booked us and needed to cancel. We should get a cancellation confirmation and full refund. As you can imagine, this was a huge disappointment and left us scrambling around trying to find some alternative to do but equally exciting for the boys. It wasn't easy at such short notice, everyone was booked out as it was height of summer holidays.

I've been on quite a few outdoor excursions but nothing like what was being offered here! Jack made sure we all stayed safe and had fun, brilliant at what he does. Whatever it is you do with him you'll be in safe hands!Myself and my family did abseiling and Ghyll scrambling, and both activities were a treat for an adrenaline seeker like me, and for my mother who has mobility issues. It is perfect for pretty much anyone!Jack runs his activities wonderfully, and I can't wait for my next chance to go thrill seeking under his care!Words from my mother:We went Ghyll scrambling in Church Beck with Jack. My mobility is not the best but Jack was adamant I could do it safely and he was right. He looked after myself and my family beautifully and we had an amazing experience (my first time). Thank you Jack will recommend you to anyone- what an experience!!!! A memory maker.

Another absolutely amazing day out.Jack is brilliant and made the effort to come and meet me for a chat before I went out for the day with Ed. I cannot praise Ed highly enough, fantastic company and an amazing guide, so knowledgeable. I 100% recommend you.book with Lake District Adventuring.

Had a fab day out on the fells with Pete on the 1 day mountain skills course. He was very patient and showed me how to use a map and compass and how to navigate the fells, exactly what I wanted. I feel much more confident heading out on my own and hopefully I’ll be able to put my new skills to use soon. Thank you so much for a great experience.

I used Jack recently to look after our party of 24 who had never been to the Penrith area of the Lakes before. Jack recommended two superb walks with great pubs too and he and his colleagues were superb.Fun, knowledgeable and attentive to everyone, I cannot recommend him highly enough. Top bloke and well worth his reasonable fees
