Carlisle

Church Beck is a 100% wet ghyll – and that is exactly the point. Big jumps, natural rock slides, deep plunge pools and waterfalls you climb rather than admire from a path. Every jump and slide is optional, with an easy route past anything you would rather watch.

What sets us apart: you are guided by a fully qualified, locally based instructor from a small independent Lake District company – not a seasonal hire. We keep groups small so you get real attention, and we have earned a 5-star rating from over 500 reviews doing exactly this.

All technical kit is included: wetsuit, helmet, buoyancy aid, harness and boots. We also send you photographs of your adventure afterwards, free.

And if it rains? Even better. The beck comes alive in the wet. You are in a wetsuit either way – this is one Lake District day out that improves in bad weather.
