Gorge Scrambling Adventure

Gorge Scrambling at the Truim Falls

The Truim Falls is located near Newtonmore and Dalwhinnie just twenty minute from Aviemore suited in the Cairngorms National Park. In fact, this is one of Scotland’s classic Gorge Scrambling venues for adrenaline seekers so it is perfectly located for anyone up on holiday in the Aviemore & Cairngorms area! This, it is one of our most popular days. In short, it is a fantastic experience with water chutes, high speed slides and flumes , jumps up to 20 ft providing something for everyone.

This activity is best suited to everyone aged 6 and upwards who want an amazing adventure day in the water. The meeting place is at the venue, you will then kit up and head into the gorge for your adventure. 

A typical Itinerary would be to meet your instructor at the venue for the morning or afternoon session at either 10:00 or 13:00 depending. You will then kit up and spend the next couple of hours in the stunning gorge; scrambling, jumping, sliding and travelling down flumes before culminating in the biggest jump (20 ft).

Firstly, you will most certainly get wet. As a matter of fact, our venue has jumps ranging from just a few feet for the wee kids all the way to jumps 20ft for the incredibly brave! In short, one of the most amazing adventures of your life is to gorge scramble in Scotland! Guided by our expert instructors, you will have a thrilling adventure.

The venue we use for our gorge scrambling sessions has been carved & eroded from the Scottish rock over millions of years and is just a short drive from Aviemore. Ultimately, the erosion has formed natural slides & chutes, jumps up to 20ft, abseils and natural rock features to negotiate – This is a challenging experience providing a truly adventurous day out in Scotland.
