We're Open Again!
Welcome to Discover@Kepplewray! We create adventurous, inclusive and enriching experiences for all, regardless of ability. Our accessible and comfortable outdoor activity centre is near Coniston Water in the Lake District National Park, by the beautiful Duddon valley.
We re-opened after lockdown on 4th July and are once again hosting lots of participants safely each week as things get back to normal for challenging and fun outdoor activities. To keep everyone safe and well, we have strict procedures for daily temperature checks for everyone by infrared thermometer, daily deep-cleaning of public spaces and equipment and, if required, staggered mealtimes to reduce numbers in any one space.
We’ve had great feedback including, ‘…I wanted to say a big thank you to everyone involved with the holiday camp last week…[my daughter] loved it. The instructors were absolutely fantastic - experienced, kind, funny, willing to let the kids try out stuff and giving them a real sense of freedom and adventure….she came back on a high from each day, and keen to do more - which is exactly the outcome you want from a camp like this’.
We want groups to be able to come to The Kepplewray Centre with confidence whenever the time is right, and we hope you’ll be able to plan your activity-based event before long. Please select from the options above to find out more about what we do and how we ensure that your group will have a great stay!

Support Kepplewray During Coronavirus
Every month we usually welcome hundreds of young people to our Centre in the Lake District National Park to stay in the countryside and take part in some great activities, to develop themselves and learn about the world around them. We are specifically an inclusive centre and work with guests of all abilities and ages.
Due to COVID-19 many of our bookings were postponed and, as a charity, our income has been affected. Whilst we have taken the necessary steps to minimize outgoings and are using the available Government support schemes we still find ourselves facing a shortfall. We need nearly £5,000 per month to keep Kepplewray running, so you are able to help financially, please click here to go to our GoFundMe page.
Thank You from the Kepplewray Team.
