R & L Adventures
Feeling adventurous? For the bold or the timid, for the individual or the family group, R & L Adventures have something to fit your requirements.

The Lake District has much more to offer than the obvious fell walking and with qualified instructors available you can really test your skills or try out a completely new sport. Maybe there is something you have always wanted to try - such as ghyll scrambling, rock climbing, pot holing, abseiling, canoeing, orienteering or winter mountaineering. R & L Adventures offers a varied programme for all members of your party.

Based in Broughton Mills, Neil Collier and Linda Rutland, who are both experienced mountain leaders, are keen to work with our Heart of the Lakes' clients to make your holiday really memorable.

Tuition fees are £80 for half a day for 4 persons or £120 for a full day for 4 persons.

Once you have booked your holiday you can pre-book your adventure day by phoning 015394 45104 (please mention Heart of the Lakes) or visit www.walk-climb-paddle.co.uk.
