Gorge Walking for Two in the Cairngorms National Park
Overview
Get outdoors and take a walk on the wild side with this incredible Gorge Walking for Two in the Cairngorms National Park.
Walking, wading, swimming and clambering up small waterfalls, gullies and chutes, you’ll have to put all your skills to the test as you discover the challenges that come with this stunning gorge walking experience. You’ll be accompanied by two instructors, who'll give you a detailed briefing beforehand, so there’s no need to worry – just head out and enjoy yourselves! You’ll climb up the rocks to reach the top of the gorge, before taking a deep breath and taking a 10ft drop in to the plunge pool. Then it’s time to turn round and head back the way you came, only this time slipping and sliding down.
The perfect outdoor activity for any thrill-seekers, you’ll get all the excitement of an exhilarating water experience, alongside spectacular views of the Highlands.

On arrival you’ll be fully briefed and kitted out in a full-body wetsuit, buoyancy aid and helmet before making the 10-minute journey to the gorge. From there, you’ll be briefed again by your two instructors, before stepping into the bottom of the gorge and acclimatising to the mountain water.

Brilliant experience!
An amazing experience, the instructors were so friendly and encouraging, and clearly knew what they were doing, I was with my son and felt very safe the whole time. Highly recommend this experience. I'm hoping to go back next year with my wife and daughter.

Best reaction to a birthday gift.... ever
Thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience from start to finish. The staff were friendly, the activity was superb and the face on my husband when he realised he was gorge walking was priceless.

Awesome gorge walking experience!!
Absolutely loved it! From start to finish we had so much fun. The instructors were lovely, very knowledgeable about the gorges and helped us along the way when we needed it (it can be quite hard at times!) As it was our first time visiting the highlands we were stunned by the scenery, this experience gave us the perfect opportunity to stay and enjoy what the National Park had to offer. Overall one of the best trips we’ve been on. If you like adventure and nature you must book this!
