Now this really is an exhilarating way to spend a morning or afternoon, whether you're in a group of family and friends, school or youth group, stag or hen, or the experience is part of some corporate team-building. The location is a stunning little gorge just a 10 mile / 15 minute drive from Craggan Outdoors. Fully briefed and kitted out in a quality 5mm full-body wetsuit (standard outdoor centre suits are 3mm), buoyancy aid and helmet in the comfort of our changing rooms, you then make the short journey to the gorge, full of anticipation and excitement. Once there you'll hear the thunder of the water and then witness the beauty of one of nature's fantastic achievements.
Briefed again by your two instructors, best practice from a safety perspective - we're very happy to tell you why - you step in at the bottom of the gorge and begin to acclimatise to the fresh mountain water. Then led one instructor and tailed by the other - you can't be in safer hands as our team know the gorge like the back of their hands - you walk, wade, swim, scramble and clamber up small waterfalls, gullies and chutes until reaching the plunge pool at the top of the gorge. Climb up the rocks and do just that....a ten foot plunge back in! Once everybody's had enough of that, it's off back down again, slipping and sliding down all those gullies and chutes.
Price per person for this fantastic fun - check out the video below - is from £39 upwards, depending upon the size of your group.

"I bought my husband and brother a gorge walking experience for their birthdays. Communications with Keith was nothing short of outstanding. When we all arrived the welcome was a warm and friendly one and all staff had a smile on their face which is always nice to see. The activity was explained in full and both my brother and husband said the staff tailored the experience in order to meet and exceed their expectations. After the walk my husband was hyper and blown away by the whole experience. He can't wait to get back to try other activities! A fabulous day out and a fabulous experience to look back on! Thanks to all at Craggan!" 'Haushinka', via TripAdvisor, 21st May 2011
"Slipping and sliding down the gorge was fantastic....a real feeling of excitement and danger, but knowing all along that we were in safe hands." Jamie Malcolm, 9th October 2010
"Gorge walking was a big hit with everyone in the group due to the team aspect and unity that it engendered."
