About the experience
Gorge walking is an outdoor activity offered in South Wales. It may sound like hiking with a map and soggy sandwiches, but it's actually pretty gnarly and requires a full-on attitude to succeed. All you need to bring for the adventure is your nerve, as safety equipment is provided and experienced guides will ensure a safe and thrilling experience. After introductions and a briefing session, it's time to take a deep breath and go for it. The walks take place in stunning Welsh gorges, with incredible challenges and obstacles provided by Mother Nature. You may find yourself abseiling down a waterfall, traversing rock walls, leaping across boulders, or even exploring underground holes and jumping over bogs. It's important to note that there's no pressure to attempt all the challenges, but once you get started, you won't be able to stop. And if you're feeling brave, there's the grand finale: Loonies Leap, a thrilling water plunge.
