Canyoning Lake District: Church Beck

Looking for that slice more adrenaline than usual? Church Beck, situated just outside of Coniston, provides an excellent half-day of canyoning Lake District style. What does that mean? Some of the locals call it ghyll scrambling. It means gorge scrambling along the natural passages cut through the landscape, psyching yourself up to leap off ledges, standing beneath the pummel of waterfalls, sliding through natural chutes carved out of the rock by thousands of years of water and a lot - a lot - of laughter and fun.

Why, you might ask? It's about commitment and challenge, about conquering your nerves, about pushing yourself beyond what you thought was your limit. Take a series of jumps into the canyon as you descend Church Beck; some of these jumps you'll abseil, others you'll just leap. Contact Joint Adventures on 01539449003 for more details of the packages they run in this unforgettably wild environment.

And, once you've done some of the best gorge scrambling Lake District has to offer, head back to one of these Coniston Campsites and congratulate yourself with a BBQ and a beer or two, for starters anyway. Use our 'things to do' and 'cycle route' tabs on each site's listing to further plan a stay to remember.
