Gorge walking

Thrills and adventure in uncharted Raasay

Gorge walking – or canyoning as it is sometimes known – is a hugely satisfying activity. Walking, jumping, swimming and scrambling, you will discover fantastic canyons and incredible gorges in parts of Raasay that are inaccessible to most visitors. You might even end up on the beach where the Queen used to picnic.

Wearing wetsuits, buoyancy aids and crash hats you could be making your way up a narrow gorge carved out of the land, climbing up a raging torrent, jumping into deep pools or abseiling down a waterfall.  And all of it amongst spectacular scenery and wildlife. Great fun, a real challenge and impossible to stay dry!
