The pick up comes in the form of a Fun Yak which will take you back to land where you can do it all over again.. a popular adrenaline buzz for the thrill seekers. A great activity to add onto your day at the end of Rafting the Orkey or Fun yakking on the river Awe.

Canyoning is jumping, abseiling down waterfalls and sliding down natural water flumes. Suitable for people with no prior experience or seasoned canyoneers alike we have a range of sessions available and trips can be tailored to suit. Canyoning is exhilarating, adventurous and fun and is a brilliant activity both on a sunny day, or as a fill-in on a rainy one to.

If exploring the coastline in a new and exciting way appeals to you, then book yourself a trip on one of the most exhilarating adventures of all.

White Water fun yakking is a unique and exciting way of going down Scotland's finest rivers. Fun Yaks are two person inflatable, highly manoeuvrable open canoes. With no previous experience necessary we will teach you the skills required to run the rapids. The boats combine the manoeuvrability of a kayak with the stability and safety of a white water raft. Paddling down class 3 rapids, it's a wild water experience not to be missed. If you've been White Water Rafting and want something more, Fun Yakking is for you!
