This operator is offering 30 & 60 minute VR experiences with an impressive catalogue of games for you to choose from. Sessions principally use the leading HTC Vive VR headset.

If you've never tried Via Ferrata before it's time to get your outdoor gear on & have a go at this exhilarating climbing sport! Via Ferrata literally means 'iron road' in Italian & is the name used to describe the metal steps & bridges that were installed along treacherous mountains passes in the Alps in the First World War to help soldiers traverse strategic Alpine crossing points. The name has stuck & now it's a really popular leisure pursuit in Europe. The Via Ferrata you'll be tackling is actually the very first in Scotland & only the second set up in the whole of the UK. & the team has chosen a stunning spot for it. You'll be scaling the heights within touching distance of the Grey Mare's Tail waterfall in Kinlochleven. One of Scotland's biggest cascades of fast-flowing water the route you'll be clambering tops out at around 90m just above the mouth of the waterfall at 85m. Yes it really is as impressive as it sounds. The rock face has been equipped with metal steps called 'staples'
- because that's exactly what they look like (albeit totally massive ones!) wooden planks metal cable bridges & ladders too. You'll be kitted out with a body harness & a karabiner so that you are attached at all times so logic tells you you can't actually fall very far but it's still pretty hectic. In fact we can honestly say the moving up the granite face isn't that challenging physically it's all about how high it is & how exposed you feel. If you dare look behind you you'll see the waters of Loch Leven glistening in the background. Look sideways & there's the waterfall (you might even feel the spray in your face!) & look down (eek!) & you'll see the instructors grinning at you as they shout words of encouragement. As you negotiate the metal that tests your mettle nothing can describe the feeling as you haul yourself over the final ledge. You feel so alive so pleased with yourself that you conquered this impressive Via Ferrata. Stand up take a moment to catch your breath & then take a look around you. stunning isn't it? & all the more incredible when you think without those metal rungs & cables there's no other way of getting up to that viewpoint. Of course Via Ferrata certainly isn't for everyone but it is a novel way of scaling the granite that doesn't require enormous physical strength or climbing skill but you will definitely have to have a head for heights. We offer lots of high-speed activities here at Intothe Blue.co.uk but despite the near walking pace of this activity we think this Via Ferrata with views across the Scottish hills guarantees the highest thrills. Isn't it time you climbed the iron road?
