Definitely no limits to having fun at Nae Limits in Scotland

We’re looking for great things to do around the world. And on our list we’ve got canyoning, white water rafting, sphereing and cliff jumping…well that’s four of the thousands of things we want to find out about.

We struck gold when we came across old-hands Nae Limits in Dunkeld, central Scotland. This well-known and very friendly centre has been listed as one of the 50 best Activity Weekends by UK national newspaper, The Independent, for the last six years. They do all four of our activities and they do them amidst stunning Scottish scenery.

Canyoning can be defined rather primly as ‘the descent of a long, deep and narrow gorge where the only way is down.’ But canyoning down Bruar Falls Canyon sounds much more fun with adrenalin pumping river swims, jumps, rock slides and scrambles.

Kirstin at Nae Limits didn’t need to sell the idea of white water rafting to us. We all know it’s going to be fun, wet and noisy. Enough said. But sphereing was a new one. ‘People say it’s the best fun they’ve had with their clothes on,’ says Kirstin. ‘You get strapped inside a large, clear, inflatable ball and we push you down a hill!’ Hmm. She then offered me the Eclipse Sphere. ‘You could be one of the first people in the world to ride it. It’s the first blacked out ball.’

I think I’ll stick to the cliff jumping. I’ll push myself thanks, rather than be pushed. Cliff jumping is typically done in a gorge – cue scrambling, paddling, swimming around to find a natural rock shute. Nae Limits then teach you the best and most fun way to get down the shute – cue screaming, excitement and more water. Kirstin tells me they start people off down 1 metre jumps, but progress to 8 metre jumps – cue booking form.
