We had a superb half day trip today with Joe Galloway Canyoning on the Lower Murray route, our group included kids aged 9-12 and adults aged 47-53 years old and we all had an absolute ball! It’s a brilliant mix of adventure, challenge, fun and excitement. Big smiles all round, Joe was a fantastic instructor and looked after us really well. Highly recommend! Thank you!

I will never tire of this view. As you head down the Glen from Rowantree to the main road, this is what greets you and it’s always different depending on the tides.

Today we explored an area we’ve never been to - KirkAndrew’s Bay, near Carrick. We went on a sea shore foraging walk with local expert Tamara Colchester .
Stunning scenery, and we discovered fascinating edible seaweeds and plants and enjoyed a lovely calm evening by the sea.
Finished with delicious herbal tea, fried seaweed, brownies and shortbread made with seaweed and other plants.
A very special evening.
