Located in the historic Honister Slate Mine, on this tour you will see the fells of the Lake District from a totally unique angle—more than 2000 ft. high. Climb up the side of Fleetwith Pike using the Via Ferrata and follow your guide to the top for a view of the North Lakes you won’t forget. Walk through the mine’s tunnel system to reach the Via Ferrata, and learn about the mine as you head out on your adventure, if you like.
After putting on the safety gear we will walk the 10min to the start of the course, passing through some of the old mine tunnels. Once there it’s a mixture of rock climbing, steep ladders, bridges and a cargo net to reach the dizzy heights of Fleetwith Pike nearly 650m high.
