Edinburgh


Scotland is home to some breathtaking canyons, each with its own character and natural beauty. We will take you, your friends and family to the best canyons Scotland has to offer where we will spend the day navigating through the narrow gorges, leaping into crystal-clear rock pools and sliding down enchanted falls.

Canyoning is the most invigorating adventurous activities that Scotland has to offer and our full day private and open tours are the perfect experience for a stag and hen do, an adventurous adults birthday party or a group that wants to experience the thrill of splashing around in Scotlands natural playgrounds.

Our experienced and ICA qualified instructors will collect you from your accommodation, provide all technical equipment you need (including technical canyon boots) and customise the day to meet ability and expectations of your groups!

Who is canyoning for?

Canyoning, also known as canyoneering, is an exhilarating outdoor adventure that involves navigating through canyons using a variety of techniques such as climbing, scrambling, jumping, rappelling, and swimming.

The My Adventure Canyoning experience is ideal for physically able individuals who are looking to exchange urban life for a wild adventure.
