Wikipedia says,"A canyon or gorge is a deep valley between cliffs often carved from the landscape by a river. Gorge walking is the process of travelling in gorges using a variety of techniques that may include walking, scrambling, climbing, jumping, traversing, and/or swimming…"

First of all, if you’ve never heard of gorge walking before, prepare yourself…this is fun. Gorge walking is one of the best wildwater activities available, and a fantastic outdoor adventure is guaranteed. Firstly, we’ll get you kitted out in wetsuits, buoyancy aids, cagouls and helmets. Then we transport you to an idyllic location in the Brecon Beacons, where, under the supervision of our expert instructors, you’ll begin to trace a Welsh mountain river upstream, scramble over waterfalls, traverse rock faces, bodysurf rapids, swim through eddies and make death-defying 30ft jumps into deep pools. This is an absolutely fantastic half or full day out, and will keep the adrenaline pumping to the very last second. If you can pull your attention away from the excitement for a second or two, you’ll take in some pretty spectacular scenery too.

Staying as dry as possible for as long as you can is part of the challenge, although our expert instructors are less than likely to make that a possibility! Our Swift Water Rescue qualified staff have an intimate local knowledge of the streams & rivers that you’ll follow. Gorge walking is definitely a group activity, and is an ideal and memorable event for birthday parties, corporate outings, stag/hen weekends, or school and youth group days out. At the Summit indoor climbing and activity Centre, we understand that many people can be weak or non-swimmers. This is no problem at all, and we guarantee that with the right attitude, every member of a group has the ability to complete every challenge.
