This unique challenge allows you to abseil (free-fall style, like the S.A.S.!) from the iconic Forth Bridge. It’s a 165ft drop with a soft landing on the golden sandy beach below in the picturesque village of South Queensferry.

No previous experience is needed to take part: it’s suitable for everyone 18 years old or over. There will be a team of highly skilled instructors who will ensure you are equipped with everything you need to make your abseil safe and enjoyable. It’s a real adrenaline rush followed by a huge sense of achievement as your feet land on solid ground.

Access to the Forth Bridge is only possible due to the generosity of Network Rail and Balfour Beatty.  This years event is hosted by Chest Heart and Stroke Scotland and we have been lucky to secure 10 places.

Minimum fundraising of £150 required.

Mobility & Medical
• This is just a reminder that if you are aware of any pre-existing medical conditions/history which could in any way affect your ability to take part safely in the event, including climbing up to the abseil point and abseiling itself, it is essential that you seek advice from your doctor. You then must only take part in the event if you have been advised by your doctor that it is safe for you to participate. You must also communicate any relevant medical information as soon as possible ahead of the event.


• We can make some limited arrangements for participants who might have difficulty climbing stairs, if you can foresee any issues with this or any other aspects of the abseil, it is important you contact us before you start fundraising to confirm we can make the necessary arrangements on the day.


• Please note that the stairs used to climb up to the abseil area are differing in heights and the treads and surfaces might be uneven in parts.
