 Gorge Walking Wales 

                Gorge Walking in Wales and the Brecon Beacons                   Experience the Ultimate in Gorge Walking

Gorge Walking in Wales and the Brecon Beacons  

If you are looking for the best gorge walking that Wales and the Brecon Beacons has to offer, then Gorge Walking Wales has all the adventure and excitement that you can manage.  We have gorges to suit all ages and abilities, so whether you want just a fun filled exciting day or something a bit more extreme then Gorge Walking Wales is the place to find the gorge walk to suit you. 

If you don't know what gorge walking is all about, then in a nutshell it is one of the best outdoor activities that you can do.  Basically it involves your party scrambling up or down a river or stream. Now this might seem quite tame but it is the type of river that makes the difference. As the name might suggest, all the rivers we operate in run through steep gorges which produces various natural challenges for your team to overcome. These challenges can range from abseiling down 30 foot waterfalls, climbing up 15 to 20 foot waterfalls, jumping 15 foot into plunge pools and many other fun and thrilling activities along the way.

Even though gorge walking in Wales is a hugely exciting outdoor activity we aim to make it as safe as possible. All our instructors are highly experienced climbing instructors as well as experts in gorge walking. We check out all the rivers that we operate on and we know all the Welsh and Brecon Beacon gorge walks inside out. 

Our ultimate aim is to give you and your party the most fun, the most excitement and the best adventure that you have ever had. And don't feel intimidated by the photos, we always start gently and teach you all the techniques that you need along the way. By the time you get to the larger climbs and abseils you will be more than ready for them and if you feel that you don't want to do a certain challenge then there are always other options.

During the gorge walking we will be taking photos and videos of you and your party at all the best spots. We will then send a cd/dvd with all the pictures to your group leader so that you can relive those moments again and again. If you want to bring your own cameras or camcorders we will use them when we can but it will be at your own risk.

Don't forget, you can go gorge walking at any time of the year as we supply full wet suits and a complete set of waterproof clothing  as well as all the necessary safety equipment.  

So if you want to experience the best gorge walking that Wales and the Brecon Beacons can offer then contact me for a quote for you and your party.  I offer discounts for large groups and can arrange transport and accommodation if you have not already got it organised

Feedback from Groups Gorge Walking in Wales

Ronnie's Stag Party - November 2011 

Thanks must go to Michael from Gorge Walking Wales for literally getting our Stag Do off to a flying start with abseiling off the old railway viaduct! Michael's calm approach alleviated any fears, allowing us to take the next LEAP of faith with a slack rope. A great lunch followed then on to the gorge walking. Again a few words of wisdom avoided daft mistakes, drowning and any injuries to the stag that may have put paid to the pub crawl later. Highly recommended for something very different.

Ronnie - London


Suzanne's Hen Party - November 2011

Thank you Mike and Dave for such a brilliant time. All the girls loved it and decided it was best day out of the whole hen weekend. 
You were both very supportive and lots of fun and I would definitely do all over again. 
I would totally recommend gorge walking if you want an exciting day/weekend. I'm sad that its over !!!

Janet and Friends - October 2011

Thank you so much for the fabulous day gorge walking and thanks for the photos.
We had a thoroughly exhilarating experience abseiling and gorge walking with Michael in Wales.   Michael is great fun to be with and you can have great confidence in him leading you safely through the activity.   Would have no hesitation in recommending Gorge Walking Wales or using them again in the future.

Adrian's Stag Party - September 2011

Just wanted to pass on my thanks to yourself and the instructors for the gorge walking on Saturday.  Everyone had a great time - the extra rain really made the gorge walking a lot of fun and it certainly cleared everyone's hangover from the night before!

Many thanks once again,

Adrian - Dorset



SRJ Team Day Out - July 2011 

Thank you very much for these photos – they are a great reminder of a fantastic time had by every one.

The feedback this morning back in the office is brilliant – as much for the ones that went but I can also see that the ones who didn’t qualify will really make sure they do next time.

Thank you for all your help along the way in getting it organised and our guides for the day itself helped to make sure it was enjoyed by all – going out of their way to encourage even the most timid of person to do much more than they ever dreamed of.

Hope to be in touch again in the future.

Michael - East Sussex


Alex's Stag Party - July 2011

Just wanted to say a massive thank you, we had an amazing time!! the gorge walking was SO much fun and everyone loved it.  You did a brilliant job of challenging us and making the day great fun. 

I can't wait to see the photos and I am sure we will be back, so will be in touch soon! 
many thanks, 

Alex - Essex


Martin and Friends - May 2011

I just wanted to say a huge thank you to you and your colleague for the fantastic gorge walking day we enjoyed on Friday. You were friendly and patient with us and we found it hugely challenging and rewarding.  The whole party said they had a great time. Best 
hangover cure ever!!!

Thanks again. P.S. The pics are great.

Chris and Stag Group - May 2011

What a fantastic afternoon. We were a small group of mixed ability stag-weekenders and couldn't have asked for more.  Michael, our leader, was supportive of the group throughout, setting the pace to match our ability.  Starting out we learnt the relevant 
techniques we'd need later in the day, with a focus on safety and teamwork.  We then took it in turns to lead our way up the gorge with various targets set as we went along (like staying dry!).  Highlights for me were the headfirst shimmy down a very narrow 45 
degree angle tunnel, and a couple of heart stopping leaps from waterfalls.  Provided with access to photos of the event on-line afterwards.  Whole event was safe, professional, and most importantly a great deal of fun!

Suzie's Hen Party - April 2011

Thank you for a fantastic day's gorge walking in Wales and making the start of Suzie's hen weekend so much fun, it will be the subject of many a conversation for weeks to come!  The rest of the weekend seemed tame in comparison, even the girls night out! 

All the best, 

Catie - Reading


Natalie's Hen Party - April 2011

Laura's Hen Party - April 2011

We had an absolutely fantastic time gorge walking on Saturday it was good to meet you, Miv and Steve and thank you for your help and patience!   I have already had 4 emails from the other girls saying how good the activities were and how much they 
enjoyed them.

Group of four lads - March 2011 

Just wanted to say thank you very much for a spectacular day, we all thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and want to go gorge walking again immediately! What topped it off was the fact that you're quite obviously very knowledgeable and passionate about the 
activities and you take a true interest in teaching others your knowledge and skills - it really was a fantastic experience that has left me hungry for more! 

My father is 60 this year and has always wanted to go gorge walking so am looking at booking something for later this year.     What's your availability like?

Paul's Stag Party - Feb 2011 

Michael, 

Thanks for such a great day for my brothers stag weekend in Wales.  The gorge walking was everything I had hoped for, and I thought you and Matt were both great guides and great sports towards our whole group.   All the boys were buzzing about it for the rest of the day!    I may well be in touch about a coasteering day or another gorge walking day (perhaps the one with abseiling).    Also, thanks for capturing some great photos, and accommodating our varying group size.    Stag weekends are difficult to organise, and I appreciated the flexibility in group size that you accounted for.    I'll be sure to recommend gorge walking and yourself to others!
