This an experience that will test you as you tackle a thrilling, 25-metre aerial climb straight to the horse’s mouth!

The Kelpies Experience involves climbing 25 meters to the mouth of the Kelpies using a series of seven ladders, cables crossing, suspended platforms, nets and aerial course features before descending back down to ground level either by abseil or a quick flight device (an automatic rope based descending device that provides an initial ‘free fall’ experience before lowering to the ground). The Kelpies Experience is mentally and physically challenging with high levels of height exposure, a requirement to climb ladders, crawl, crouch and walk across uneven and sloped terrain.

Every step you take will bring us closer to making sure no one in Scotland is alone when their baby dies.

Designed by Scottish sculptor, and friend to the charity, Andy Scott, The Kelpies are a triumph of design and engineering. Andy also created the beautiful Mortonhall Children's Memorial sculpture, Lulla-Bye, in collaboration with our charity in 2019. It is great to be celebrating Andy's contributions once again in a way that further supports our charity's mission to ensure no one in Scotland is alone when their baby dies.
