The Ultimate Forth Bridge Abseil Fundraising Experience
This exhilarating and unique challenge allows you to abseil (free-fall style, like the S.A.S.!) from the iconic Forth Bridge – Scotland’s Best Loved Landmark, and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It’s a 165ft drop with a soft landing on the golden sandy beach below, set in the picturesque village of South Queensferry – the ultimate abseil experience!
The event is open to individuals aged 16 and over. For participants under 18, a parent or guardian must co-sign the registration form and be present at the event (participation is not mandatory).
