Forth Bridge Abseil
Edinburgh, East and FifeExperience the thrill of a lifetime – and support children with life-shortening conditions across Scotland.
Join us for the Forth Bridge Abseil, an unforgettable challenge that lets you abseil free-fall style (just like the S.A.S.!) from Scotland’s most iconic landmark – the Forth Bridge, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Standing 165ft above the Firth of Forth, you’ll descend onto the soft sands of the stunning South Queensferry beach below. It’s Scotland’s most spectacular abseil experience – and a memory you’ll treasure forever.
Why abseil for CHAS?
Every pound you raise helps Children’s Hospices Across Scotland continue to offer vital care and support to children with life-shortening conditions and their families. This is your chance to take on an incredible personal challenge – and make a life-changing difference.
