Our “Sunday Scrambles” will feature Grade 1 and Grade 2 scrambles, perfect for anyone seeking a bit of a challenge without being too strenuous. Each walk will primarily be under 7 miles, making them accessible and enjoyable for a wide range of walkers. These events will be held on Sundays throughout the summer months, our first one is set for Sunday the 8th June so get it in your diary!

It’s essentially un-roped climbing over steep and uneven terrain<\/strong>, where you’ll likely need to use your hands as well as your feet for upward progress. Think of it as a more adventurous hike, a step up in challenge and thrill from your typical walk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
