A great canyon with good quality rigging throughout. Walk in time, decent time and walk our time are pretty accurate deepening on your group size. 2 of you, perfect, any more, add some extra descent time.
I can imagine it getting quite busy in summer with tourists as access is pretty easy. Farmer who’s land you access across is plainly not on board due to the large signs saying ‘no footpath, no access’ however there is a clearly signposted and labelled Lake District route. Certainly worth the canyoning community proposing a small access fee to keep the land owner on side and prevent future access issues perhaps? Its standard for my caving trips, why not canyoning?
If you go late morning / early afternoon you can get some epic photos as the sun comes around and lights upon the falls and route all the way down.
Descended on 31/07/2022. After two days and a night of intermittent heavy downpours we expected the flow to be high however due to a very short lag period, the canyon had drained by mid day and flow was back to average, all abseils where very manageable, the location seems to be getting quite a lot of interest due to the ‘infinity pool’ located half way down the canyon so expect a few spectators on a sunny day. Some anchors could do with new webbing and maillions.
A brilliant little canyon, definitely one of the best in the lakes, whoever goes in next, please bring some webbing to replace some damaged tat.
